[Jarrett] recently stumbled upon a class of drawing algorithms called force-directed graphs, which artificially apply forces to the elements. The final graph is then generated by applying the laws of ...

Figure 1: Schematic of the 3D force detection method on a Ge(001)-c(4 × 2) surface using bimodal AFM. Figure 2: Force component maps and force vector distributions above Ge(001) dimers. Figure 3: ...

This new propulsion system could rewrite the rules of spaceflight—not to mention completely defy conventional physics.
