Under intense laser pulses, the tiny diamond sample melted without adopting the expected intermediate state, according to Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. This American establishment published its results on 13 Aug. 2026 in Nature Physics. The experiment reproduces a constraint three times greater than that of the Earth's heart. Until then, no one had followed the arrangement of carbon atoms until they liquefy. Melting a diamond also rect…
