A key to materials synthesis is the ability to control the process of reduction kinetics and nucleation (phase transition) in materials. Understanding the reduction dynamics during the initial stage of material synthesis ...
Surfers spend much of their time watching long waves come onto the shoreline as they attempt to catch one right as it begins to curve and break.
