A diamond anvil is apparently a tiny chamber in which incredibly high pressures can be created. So, the WSU researchers put some xenon difluoride inside a diamond anvil and cranked the pressure up ...

For this project, we will extend the library of salt hydrates, especially to the extreme conditions known on icy moons, by performing in-situ experiments using cryo-cooled diamond-anvil cells. The ...

A high pressure device called a diamond anvil cell was used to compress and alter the properties of hydrogen-rich materials Scientists have found the first material that displays a much sought ...
