The mysteries of plastic motion

The mysteries of plastic motion Understanding plastic motion of solids — in which atoms change their neighbours as they move — is complicated because it is discontinuous and does not conserve energy. An elegant study of vortex dynamics in superconductors provides new insights. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Nature Materials Springer Journals
