  2. Lonsdaleite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lonsdaleite

    In diamond, all the carbon-to-carbon bonds, both within a layer of rings and between them, are in the staggered conformation, thus causing all four cubic-diagonal directions to be equivalent; whereas in lonsdaleite the bonds between layers are in the eclipsed conformation, which defines the axis of hexagonal symmetry.

    The hardness of synthetic diamond (70–150 GPa) is very dependent on the relative purity of the crystal itself. The more perfect the crystal structure, the harder the diamond becomes. It has been reported that HPHT single crystals and nanocrystalline diamond aggregates (aggregated diamond nanorods) can be harder than natural diamond. [25]

    The result is a compact ball of nearly pure neutron matter with sparse protons and electrons interspersed, filling a space several thousand times smaller than the progenitor star. [ 4 ] At the surface, the pressure is low enough that conventional nuclei, such as helium and iron , can exist independently of one another and are not crushed ...

    It is lighter (density 3.21 g/cm 3 vs. 3.53 g/cm 3), and much more resistant to heat than diamond. This results in a stone of higher luster , sharper facets, and good resilience. Loose moissanite stones may be placed directly into wax ring moulds for lost-wax casting, as can diamond, [ 84 ] as moissanite remains undamaged by temperatures up to ...

  9. Neptunium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neptunium

    The oxides and hydroxides of neptunium are closely related to its ions. In general, Np hydroxides at various oxidation levels are less stable than the actinides before it on the periodic table such as thorium and uranium and more stable than those after it such as plutonium and americium. This phenomenon is because the stability of an ion ...
