Carbon nanotubes are wires of pure carbon with nanometer diameters and lengths of many microns. A single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) may be thought of as a single atomic layer thick sheet of graphite (called graphene) rolled into a seamless cylinder.

Deux nouvelles formes du carbone ont été découvertes récemment : les fullerènes en 1985 par une équipe anglo-américaine et les nanotubes en 1991 par une équipe japonaise. Un nanotube est un cylindre graphitique, avec des hexagones, fermé aux deux extrémités par un chapeau de type fullerène, c'est-à-dire contenant des pentagones. Ces cylindres peuvent être longs de plusieurs microns pour un diamètre de l'ordre du nanomètre. Un nanotube constitué d'un seul cylindre graphitique est couramment appelé «nanotube monoparoi». Il existe aussi des nanotubes constitués de plusieurs cylindres graphitiques coaxiaux. Ce sont les «nanotubes multiparois». 8, record 2, French, - nanotube%20de%20carbone%20simple%20paroi

On sous-entend qu'il s'agit de nanotubes de carbone, probablement parce que ce type de nanotubes est, pour le moment (2013), le plus fréquemment étudié et utilisé.

On écrirait donc «un nanotube monoparoi» et «des nanotubes monoparois». Ces termes s'écrivent sans trait d'union. Quant aux termes «nanotube simple paroi», «nanotube double paroi» et «nanotube triple paroi», ils s'écrivent sans trait d'union entre «simple», «double» ou «triple» et «paroi». Au pluriel, on écrirait «nanotubes simple paroi», «nanotubes double paroi» et «nanotubes triple paroi» («simple paroi», «double paroi» et «triple paroi» demeurent invariables). 9, record 2, French, - nanotube%20de%20carbone%20simple%20paroi

Le sandwich obtenu présente de bonnes résistances mécanique, acoustique et thermique. Le recours à des nids d'abeilles en alliage léger ou en acier limite le coût du matériau tout en offrant un accroissement de la résistance.

The Mars Express Orbiter is a cube-shaped spacecraft with two solar panel wings extending from opposite sides. The launch mass of 1123 kg includes a main bus with 113 kg of payload, the 60 kg lander, and 457 kg of propellant. The main body is 1. 5 m x 1. 8 m x 1. 4 m in size, with an aluminium honeycomb structure covered by an aluminium skin. The solar panels measure about 12 m tip-to-tip. 3, record 8, English, - Mars%20Express

The scientific objectives of the Mars Express Orbiter are to obtain global high-resolution photo-geology (10 m resolution), mineralogical mapping (100 m resolution) and mapping of the atmospheric composition, study the subsurface structure, the global atmospheric circulation, and the interaction between the atmosphere and the subsurface, and the atmosphere and the interplanetary medium. 4, record 8, English, - Mars%20Express

We report on the casting of the first 8. 4 meter diameter borosilicate honeycomb mirror at the Steward Observatory Mirror Laboratory. This blank will become the world's largest monolithic glass telescope mirror, and is the first of two mirrors for the Large Binocular Telescope Project. The honeycomb 8. 4 meter mirror was cast from 21 tons of E6 borosilicate glass manufactured by Ohara. This glass is melted into a mold constructed of aluminosilicate fiber to produce a honeycomb structure with roughly 20% of solid density. The 1662 hexagonal voids that form the honeycomb structure are produced by ceramic fiber boxes bolted to the bottom of the mold with SiC bolts. The furnace rotates at 6. 8 rpm during the casting process to produce the F/1. 14 paraboloid on the front surface. This shaping minimizes the amount of glass which must be removed during the grinding process. The front faceplate of the mirror will be 28 mm thick after generating and the back faceplate will be 25 mm. The overall thickness of the finished honeycomb blank is 89 cm at the outer edge and 44 cm at the central hole. 3, record 9, English, - honeycomb%20mirror

The settling out of the brine gives sea ice a honeycomb structure which greatly hastens its disintegration when the temperature rises above freezing. In this state, when it is called rotten ice, much more surface is exposed to warm air and water, and the rate of melting is increased. In a day's time, a floe of apparently solid ice several inches thick may disappear completely. 5, record 10, English, - rotten%20ice
