A successful day of #compchem outreach done!

Me and @stochasticchemist.bsky.social ran our new "Virtual Crystals" activity to teach some of the ideas behind crystal structure prediction

Sadly no photo from the end, but I did remember one at the start

Me: I am so sick of all these marketing gimmicks that use molecules to sell products. It’s so annoying.

Also me: ooooh, let’s buy this shampoo. It must be good.

Slightly squiffy 3D build from paper loops.
This bipartite network is a model of the unusual niobium monoxide (NbO) structure (NB purple, O yellow!). The structure can be considered as a 1/4 depleted NaCl structure, where the cubic symmetry is preserved. 🧪 #SciArt #ChemSky
