The Big Squeeze An Artitcle Published by Kenneth Chang

The article I chose was The Big Squeeze published by Kenneth Chang. Within this article Kenneth Chang speaks about experiments being done at Carnegie Institution for Science in Washington, DC. Which the researchers at Carnegie are compressing a numerous number of organic substances between diamond anvils allowing the researchers the ability to observe molecular changes, this research will allow scientists to analyze permutations of matter which are happening within the Earth's core and also within Jupiter and even other intensely pressurized environments. The scientists hope that the experiments that are being conducted will give us to new information that we can analyze to produce materials that will be more effective in taking in sunlight in electricity-producing solar cells and can provide us with fuel tanks for hydrogen-powered cars. “It’s a new kind of chemistry” (Dr. Hemley, The Big Squeeze, 2013)

The researchers use a circular-shaped metal cylinder that’s believably only two inches wide and an inch high. When needed researchers can turn screws on the upper cylinder, which pull...
