After decades of debate, researchers say that they have found the clearest evidence yet for this rare form of carbon.
With the right amount of pressure and surprisingly little heat, a substance found in fossil fuels can transform into pure diamond. It sounds like alchemy: take a clump of white dust, squeeze it in a ...
