From Anvil to Microscope: Modern metallography and the ancient secrets of metalcraft (Fri, Jul 4)
Higgins Armory Museum, 100 Barber Avenue, Worcester, MA
Metallurgy has been among the most influential human technologies for over five thousand years. Preindustrial metalsmiths knew nothing of the material science that governs the properties of metals, yet their traditional techniques, handed down from generation to generation, allowed them to manipulate these properties to produce superior steels even without any scientific understanding of what they were doing. This exhibit uses the tools of modern metallography such as optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and electron diffusion analysis to reveal the composition and structure of a selection of artifacts from the Higgins Armory collection, ranging from a Chinese bronze blade of 1000 B.C.E. to a modern decorative sword, tracing the evolution of metals technology across the millennia. Cost: Free with Museum Admission Through Sunday, Sep 7.
