Scientific X-Mas mood at the Department of Materials Science
We are heading hard for the third Advent – and thus clearly towards Christmas. In order to sweeten the remaining Advent time scientifically, we publish a materials science work of art from the Institute of General Materials Properties every few days – and invite you to guess, what it might be.
Before we dive right into the third round of our Christmas puzzle, here the solution to last one.
