Forget about waiting millions of years for a diamond to form because scientists have recently found a groundbreaking method to do that in just 15 minutes.Natural diamonds form in Earths mantle, the molten zone buried hundreds of miles...

It takes over a billion years of high pressure cooking deep inside the Earth's mantle to make diamonds. But this synthetic variety took just a quarter of an hour to make.

Scientists have used a new technique to synthesize diamonds at normal, atmospheric pressure and without a starter gem, which could make the precious gemstones easier to grow in the lab.

A delegation from Botswana High Commission in India visited the Surat Diamond Association (SDA) to invite diamond unit owners to start operations in Botswana. The Botswana government is focusing on increasing cutting and polishing of rough diamonds to generate employment. The delegation offered participation in auctions and direct sales of rough diamonds to the units in Botswana. Concerns about safety, security, and job loss were raised by city's diamond unit owners during the meeting.

Strongly interacting systems play an important role in quantum physics and quantum chemistry. Stochastic methods such as Monte Carlo simulations are a proven method for investigating such systems. However, these methods reach their limits when so-called sign oscillations occur. This problem has now been solved by an international team of researchers from Germany, Turkey, the USA, China, South Korea and France using the new method of wavefunction matching.

This new technique eliminates the need for the immense pressure traditionally required for diamond production.

The University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences (UAMS) Graduate School hailed faculty, staff and student successes at its Spring Awards Reception on April 18, 2024.
