A researcher whose neutron studies connected lattice vibrations with structural changes in <uranium>. His team reported a low-temperature <charge density wave> and strong precursor changes in the <phonon> spectrum. The experiment shows why studying atomic motion can reveal an approaching instability before a new ordered structure is fully established.<Observation of a Charge-Density Wave in α-U at Low Temperature by H. G. Smith and others>[Author list and abstract: uranium ordering near 43 K and precursor phonon spectra]{ref}
