since it does not account for the gradual 'freezing in' of the Debye frequencies. According to our conception the quantum states of liquid helium would have to correspond, so to speak, to both the ...
The weather forecast for Jupiter calls for clouds with a chance of lightning and "mushballs"—a slushy mix of ammonia and ...
Observations of Jupiter show that ammonia is unevenly distributed in the upper atmosphere, against expectations of uniform mixing. Scientists found evidence for a complicated but apparently real ...
To keep their molecular hydrogen liquid below its freezing point, team leader Takamasa Momose and colleagues at UBC confined small clusters of hydrogen molecules inside helium nanodroplets at 0.4 K.
A bizarre hailstorm of icy “mushballs” — slushy mixtures of ammonia and water — has been confirmed on Jupiter, where intense ...
Imagine a Slushee composed of ammonia and water encased in a hard shell of water ice. Now picture these ice-encrusted slushballs, dubbed "mushballs," raining down like hailstones during a thunderstorm ...
These enigmatic ice giants, shrouded in hydrogen and helium, harbor dynamic processes ... which is created by convection in its liquid outer iron core, the ice giants exhibited chaotic, nondipolar ...
With all instruments running at operating temperatures, and all heaters operating to keep the propellant from freezing, the spacecraft needs 400 to 450 watts of electricity—less than many ...
A team of researchers at the Medical Research Council Laboratory of Molecular Biology, in the U.K., has re-examined an old ...
