Some people are trading chemical sunscreens in favour of mineral versions because of fears over toxicity, pollution and ...

In 1825 Michael Faraday isolated a sweet-smelling chemical that he dubbed bi-carburet of hydrogen. That molecule, better ...

Photoactivated ketones show strong potential as hydrogen atom transfer photocatalysts, enabling the activation of carboxylic ...

A new method turns noise into valuable data to enhance understanding of chemical reactions and material properties with unprecedented detail at the atomic level. The results of this research are now ...

An attosecond—or 0.000000000000000001 second—is no time at all for a person. That is not so for electrons, atoms and molecules, and laser-wielding scientists are revealing the action ...

With a novel approach to X-ray spectroscopy, researchers are now able to capture detailed, ultrafast snapshots of electron ...

When legendary Blue Bombers receiver Milt Stegall arrived in Winnipeg Friday morning, it was more than a homecoming to the ...

Plastic is made from oil and natural gas, which started out as fossilized plant and animal material. But buried deep ...

Knowable Magazine reports on attosecond science, revealing how scientists study atomic interactions at unbelievable speeds to ...

A molecular motor (blue) is rotated by oxidation with an enzyme (green), followed by reduction with ammonia borane (yellow).

The researchers deployed a special quantum effect called the two-photon spin-exchange Auger process to produce hot electrons far more efficiently than before. This process allows two low-energy ...

For more than a century, the well-known 18-electron rule has guided the field of organometallic chemistry. Now, researchers at Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology (OIST), in collaboration with ...
