Chemistry is often presented as one of the most advanced sciences, yet its day-to-day practice remains surprisingly manual.

Mars, often depicted as a barren red planet, is far from lifeless. With its thin atmosphere and dusty surface, it is an ...

The world’s oceans are becoming dangerously acidic. A controversial proposal would raise the pH — by mixing chemicals into ...

When scientists repeatedly drove a strongly interacting quantum system with laser “kicks,” they expected it to heat up and ...

Researchers at the Paul Scherrer Institute PSI have achieved a breakthrough on the path to practical application of lithium ...

A Northwestern Medicine study has revealed a previously unknown connection between two fundamental cellular processes, ...

Liquids and solutions may look simple, but on the molecular scale they are constantly shifting and reorganizing. When sugar dissolves in water, each sugar molecule quickly becomes surrounded by fast ...

A multi-disciplinary team of researchers linked atomic-scale features to efficient heat-to-electricity conversion, offering ...

Proton collisions at the LHC appear wildly chaotic, but new data reveal a surprising underlying order. The findings confirm that a basic rule of quantum mechanics holds true even in extreme particle ...

Emory University researchers led by Kyle Biegasiewicz have repurposed enzymes to produce diazo compounds from hydrazones under milder, greener conditions than traditional chemical methods (J. Am. Chem ...
