  2. Gold cluster - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gold_cluster

    Gold clusters in cluster chemistry can be either discrete molecules or larger colloidal particles. Both types are described as nanoparticles , with diameters of less than one micrometer. A nanocluster is a collective group made up of a specific number of atoms or molecules held together by some interaction mechanism. [ 1 ]

  3. Gene cluster - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gene_cluster

    The three gene model was originally proposed in conjunction with the four gene model; [8] however, rather than the Hox cluster and the ParaHox cluster resulting from a cluster containing three genes, the Hox cluster and ParaHox cluster were as a result of single gene tandem duplication, identical genes found adjacent on the same chromosome. [7]

    A polyploid cell or organism in which the several sets of chromosomes originate from more than one species, as in an intraspecific hybrid. [1] allo-sympatric speciation A mode of speciation where divergence occurs in allopatry and is completed upon secondary contact of the populations–effectively a form of reinforcement.

  5. Crystal system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crystal_system

    The diamond crystal structure belongs to the face-centered cubic lattice, with a repeated two-atom pattern. In crystallography, a crystal system is a set of point groups (a group of geometric symmetries with at least one fixed point). A lattice system is a set of Bravais lattices.

  6. Ring (jewellery) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ring_(jewellery)

    Ruby ring. A ring is a round band, usually made of metal, worn as ornamental jewelry.The term "ring" by itself denotes jewellery worn on the finger; when worn as an ornament elsewhere, the body part is specified within the term, e.g., earrings, neck rings, arm rings, and toe rings.

  7. Diamond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diamond

    Diamond is a solid form of the element carbon with its atoms arranged in a crystal structure called diamond cubic. Diamond as a form of carbon is a tasteless, odourless, strong, brittle solid, colourless in pure form, a poor conductor of electricity, and insoluble in water.

    Top left: full structure; middle : only gold core and Au-S shell displayed, bottom right: only Au 13-core displayed. Thiolate-protected gold clusters are a type of ligand-protected metal cluster, synthesized from gold ions and thin layer compounds that play a special role in cluster physics because of their unique stability and electronic ...

  9. Sequence clustering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sequence_clustering

    Sequence clustering is often used to make a non-redundant set of representative sequences. Sequence clusters are often synonymous with (but not identical to) protein families. Determining a representative tertiary structure for each sequence cluster is the aim of many structural genomics initiatives.
