Welcome to Elettra Crowd!

The summer of 2016 has so far been a memorable one for Elettra, and not only for the pleasantly warm weather! 
In our latest issue, you will find exciting scientific highlights along with important news. In particular, we are proud to give you updates on our meetings: the workshop on the developement opportunities in the aerospace industry and the ELI-Alps Information Day. We also present the upcoming Software for Optical Simulations Workshop to be held in October 2016 in Trieste.
We wish you a productive summer and as always we look forward to seeing you with us here at Elettra !

Research Highlights

	The dance of coronene: molecular twisting, lifting and curling C24H12 molecules adsorbed on Ir(111) undergo major conformational changes during surface-assisted dissociation to finally form dome-shaped nanographene flakes. Journal of the American Chemical Society 138, 3395 (2016) Read more...
	Fragmentation of magnetism in artificial dipolar spin ice Magnetic configuration splits into two parts to generate, collectively, an exotic phase which is at the same time ordered and disordered, solid and liquid. Nature Communications 7, 11446 (2016) Read more...
	Crystal structure of earthworm toxin reveals the mechanism of assembly The atomic structure of lysenin pore as well as the mechanism of its assembly represent an important basis for development of new approaches towards bacterial infections. Nature Communications 7, 11598 (2016) Read more...
	Soft X-ray diffraction imaging for tracking electrodeposition dynamics The first experimental demonstration of a theoretically predicted Turing-Hopf electrochemical pattern formation is obtained by CDI measurements during in-situ electrodeposition process. Nano Research 9, 2046 (2016) Read more...
