Finally they added a fluorescent iron line, amazingly bright and red - shifted so strongly that it had to be coming
from iron atoms streaking just over the event horizon at near - light speed.

Some of the X-rays
from the corona, the Cambridge researchers realized, would shine back onto the accretion disk and excite
iron atoms there.
And some of those
iron atoms would thereupon fluoresce, emitting X-rays of their own — not over the whole band this time but at a single precise line in the energy spectrum: 6.4 kilo - electron volts, which is the energy an electron loses when it falls
from one shell in an
iron atom to a lower one.
The light was simultaneously freeing sulfur
atoms from the peptides and oxidizing the
iron — turning it into a form,
iron (III), that could readily interact with the sulfur, the team reports this week in Nature Chemistry.

The Cryogenic Dark Matter Search (CDMS), buried half a mile deep in an old Minnesota
iron mine to shield it
from cosmic rays, searches for collisions between dark - matter particles called WIMPS and ordinary
atoms in 19 hockey - puck - size hunks of germanium.
Astronomers believe the bullets, which are about 10 times the size of our solar system, are clumps of
iron atoms (bright blue tips) and other gas ejected
from within the nebula after an unknown violent event.
Once this happened, the
atoms in the nickel
iron layer could flip direction in response to another magnetic field that the researchers had applied
from the outside.
When the team of geologists
from Stanford University re-created these conditions in a lab to try to duplicate an ultralow - velocity zone, they found that
iron — one of the more abundant minerals on Earth and a likely candidate material that might explain the zones — reacted with the seawater to create a form of
iron peroxide that was saturated with hydrogen
atoms, according to the new research.

The material is an amorphous steel alloy, a promising subclass of steel alloys made of arrangements of
atoms that deviate
from steel's classical crystal - like structure, where
iron atoms occupy specific locations.
Typically, scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) involves dragging a fine - tipped electrode over a structure, in this case the chain of
iron atoms, and detecting its electronic properties,
from which an image can be constructed.
