Insight into the structure of decagonite – the extraterrestrial decagonal quasicrystal

A set of X-ray data collected on a fragment of decagonite, Al(71)Ni(24)Fe(5), the only known natural decagonal quasicrystal found in a meteorite formed at the beginning of the Solar System, allowed us to determine the first structural model for a natural quasicrystal. It is a two-layer structure wit...
