Science Highlights

Probing the strange properties of hydrothermal water
A team of scientists using ISIS Neutron and Muon Source (ISIS) are investigating these fluids in the hope that as well as shedding light on the mechanisms that power the planet, we might learn how to exploit them in the fight against climate change.
Improper Ferroelectricity caused by bonding rather than size
A new material has been discovered that becomes an improper ferroelectric due to a break in symmetry caused solely by an electronically driven transition, rather than a geometric (size-driven) transformation.
