Backbone structures for three different peptides after 50 ns all-atom molecular dynamics simulations with explicit solvent.
The three darker colors show three different peptides bound to their protein receptors, while the three lighter colors show the peptides unbound in a solution.

These images show the density of material in an expanding Supernova approximately one year after the explosion. Two kinds of structures are seen in the images: structures generated by instabilities by the passing of the blast's shock wave, and those structures caused by the expansion of material being heated by the radioactive decay nickel (the inner, brighter structures).
The structures formed in the explosion are important
to the delivery of newly synthesized chemical elements.
This image depicts the spherical explosion.

- Image showing explosion with different degrees of bipolar asymmetry.
-
- Image of single lobe with high velocities.
