Most DNA research on controlled self-assembly deals with two-dimensional, i.e. flat, patterns and an expansion of these arrays into the third dimension has been challenging. New research coming out of ...

A collaborative group of researchers has potentially developed a means of controlling spin waves by creating a hexagonal pattern of copper disks on a magnetic insulator. The breakthrough is ...

The James Webb Space Telescope finished the first major stage in its long process of aligning the observatory's 18-segmented primary mirror.

The team looked at the distinctive hexagonal pattern and found they were likely evidence of high-frequency wet-dry cycles, which point towards a sustained, cyclic and maybe even seasonal climate ...

The waves meet laterally, creating the tidy hexagonal patterns that are the hallmark of a snake's skin, according to a statement.

A unique hexagonal pattern has been discovered in a recently described plant-parasitic nematode worm.

Honeycombs are marvels of engineering—the bees that create them will work together to build intricate hexagonal structures, ...

The period of this pattern depends on the angle between the sheets-- the larger the angle, the closer together the moiré hexagons are.
