Cluster models with fivefold symmetry

In 1962 Mackay introduced some amazing structures built with hard spheres as possible models for atomic clusters. Their external shape was that of a regular IC, and their size could be extended from the atomic scale to infinity. Despite the perfect fivefold symmetry of these structures, their internal local order was nearly that of a crystal. [Pg.56]
