The international team of scientists behind the study used intense, super-short laser blasts to push thin fragments of gold ...

Heating that lasted only trillionths of a second raised a gold sample’s temperature to 19,000 K without melting it, a study ...

Gold usually melts at 1,300 kelvins—a temperature hotter than fresh lava from a volcano. The feat was completely unexpected ...

Crystallization, a fundamental process in nature, hinges on two distinct stages: nucleation and growth. The latter plays a pivotal role in shaping the morphology, size, and purity of crystalline ...

A thin piece of gold reached 33,740 degrees Fahrenheit, which is more than 14 times higher than its melting point, by being rapidly heated—and it didn't melt ...
