Sandia ML Model Shows Diamond Melting at High Pressure

ALBUQUERQUE, Jan. 26, 2022 — A Sandia National Laboratories supercomputer simulation model called SNAP that rapidly predicts the behavior of billions of interacting atoms has captured the melting of diamond when compressed by extreme pressures and temperatures. At several million atmospheres, the rigid carbon lattice of the hardest known substance on Earth is shown in SNAP […]
