Discovery of New Ice Form Could Help Improve Understanding of Planet’s Geology

The discovery of a new form of ice could lead to an improved understanding of our planet’s geology, potentially helping to unlock new solutions in the production, transportation and storage of energy. Ice XVI, the least dense of all known forms of ice, has a highly symmetric cage-like structure that can trap gaseous molecules to form compounds known as clathrates or gas hydrates.

CERN Opens IdeaSquare Innovation Facility in Geneva

The European Organization for Nuclear Research CERN has opened a new innovation facility in Geneva. The facility, which has been named IdeaSquare, is modelled on Finnish Aalto University's Design Factory and Aalto University has assisted in the planning and implementation of the project. IdeaSquare will serve as an environment for technological development and its purpose is to make the technology developed at CERN more widely available for society.
