Utilizing special X-ray machine at Argonne National Laboratory, team of scientists has taken a major step toward measuring stress in cutting-edge materials. Their work provides the first method for measuring all varied pushing, pulling, and twisting at tiny scales within a solid object. Approach has allowed them to measure "tensor," or full set of stresses, in cubic sections just 250 nm per side—the level of resolution scientists need to predict material’s performance.
