High-Energy Heavy Ion Collisions from Particle Accelerators Suitable for High Precision Spectroscopy
Calculations at the Max Planck Institute for Nuclear Physics and the Vienna University of Technology (Institute for Theoretical Physics) have now shown that high-energy heavy ion collisions at large particle accelerators are suitable as light sources for the desired single and double pulses. This is due to the remarkable properties of quark-gluon plasmas.

The structure and exact water content of calcined gypsum have remained a matter of speculation. Michael F. Bräu and Horst Weiss have now brought this speculation to an end: by using single-crystal structural analyses they were able to solve the structure, generate a structural model, and support it with computer calculations. Just How Much Water is Contained in Calcined Gypsum?
