 | | Nanogold: A quantitative phase diagram | | Phase diagrams are obviously a useful way of predicting the stable structure, shape or phase of a nanoparticle as a function of size and temperature, but they are also provide information as to how unstable particles are when they are grown far from equilibrium. Until recently growing gold nanoparticles (for example) was a little like a box of chocolates - you never know what you were going to get!

 | | Ferromagnetic Funk Fluid | | This is what Wei Chandra, Ryan Satcher, and Santiago Caceres, and I (Alex Stanley) made for our MATE 232 final project. The song at the end, "Ferromagnetic Funk Fluid," was written and preformed by Ryan and Me.
Featuring cameos by my roommates, Dennis Hansen (blonde guy) and Alan Tuong (Turban guy)
Lyrics:
Walkin around, downtown, thinkin about
Ferromagnetic fluid
If you ask me why, then Ill reply,
Im a nerd, but I think you knew that.
So you ask me what it is
And I say, what?
And you say, ferrofluid.
Well, that aint no simple tale,
But if you walk with me Ill tell it
Then I pull a vile out of my pocket
And then I pull out a magnet, and you say
What is this thing, this black ball of spikes?!
It looks like an evil porcupine!
Oh no, thats just how the fluid aligns
Along magnetic field lines
Removing the field makes the spikes go away
A black pool of liquid is all that remains
Despite the ferromagnetic part of its name, the magnetization dont stay
