Accurate description of materials requires the most advanced atomic-scale techniques from both experimental and theoretical areas. In spite of the vast number of available techniques, however, the experimental study of the atomic-scale properties and phenomena even in simple solids is rather difficult.

We illustrate the complexity of this process with a family case study: a mother and her child coping with the disappearance of her brother during …

However, the relationship between both fields still remains un…
