  2. Tetrahedron packing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetrahedron_packing

    In 2007 and 2010, Chaikin and coworkers experimentally showed that tetrahedron-like dice can randomly pack in a finite container up to a packing fraction between 75% and 76%. [8] In 2008, Chen was the first to propose a packing of hard, regular tetrahedra that packed more densely than spheres, demonstrating numerically a packing fraction of 77.86%.

  3. Crystal structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crystal_structure

    Crystal structure of table salt (sodium in purple, chlorine in green) In crystallography, crystal structure is a description of ordered arrangement of atoms, ions, or molecules in a crystalline material. [ 1] Ordered structures occur from intrinsic nature of constituent particles to form symmetric patterns that repeat along the principal ...

  4. Close-packing of equal spheres - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Close-packing_of_equal_spheres

    Close-packing of equal spheres. In geometry, close-packing of equal spheres is a dense arrangement of congruent spheres in an infinite, regular arrangement (or lattice ). Carl Friedrich Gauss proved that the highest average density – that is, the greatest fraction of space occupied by spheres – that can be achieved by a lattice packing is.

  5. Crystallite - Wikipedia

    d) galvanized surface of zinc. e) micrograph of acid etched metal highlighting grain boundaries. A crystallite is a small or even microscopic crystal which forms, for example, during the cooling of many materials. Crystallites are also referred to as grains. Bacillite is a type of crystallite. [ 1] It is rodlike with parallel longulites.

    In clockwise order; Dousan, Drenchen, Sifa, Stonewood, Spriton, Grottan and Vapra. In the center is the Aureyal, the symbol of Gelfling unity. The Gelfling are the central protagonists of The Dark Crystal franchise. They are slender, elvish humanoids with protracted facial structures who originally populated most of Thra, having three long ...

  8. Cubic crystal system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cubic_crystal_system

    The primitive and cubic close-packed (also known as face-centered cubic) unit cells. In crystallography, the cubic (or isometric) crystal system is a crystal system where the unit cell is in the shape of a cube. This is one of the most common and simplest shapes found in crystals and minerals . There are three main varieties of these crystals:

  9. Crystal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crystal

    Crystal. Crystals of amethyst quartz. Microscopically, a single crystal has atoms in a near-perfect periodic arrangement; a polycrystal is composed of many microscopic crystals (called "crystallites" or "grains"); and an amorphous solid (such as glass) has no periodic arrangement even microscopically. A crystal or crystalline solid is a solid ...
