A Better Understanding of Nanosized Minerals

The red and blue images appear ghostly, like a fleeting glimpse of something that’s never been seen before - which is true. Using computer simulations, Berkeley Lab scientists have developed the first predicted images of water molecules surrounding a nanoparticle, in this case an iron-oxide mineral called hematite.
