Researchers have analyzed the stepwise hydration of prolinol, a molecule widely used as a catalyst and as a building block in ...
Whether a smartphone battery lasts longer or a new drug can be developed to treat incurable diseases depends on how stably the atoms constituting the material are bonded. The core of molecular design ...
COLUMBUS, Ohio — Chemists have calculated the structure of a very unusual molecule, one whose hyperactive atoms have earned it the nickname “the scrambler.” This highly caustic “protonated methane,” ...
Every crystal's shape is a mirror of the internal arrangement of its molecules, but the molecules in photoswitchable crystals ...
DNA's iconic double helix does more than "just" store genetic information. Under certain conditions, it can temporarily fold into unusual shapes. Researchers at Umeå University, Sweden, have now shown ...
Researchers from the Max Planck Institute for Extraterrestrial Physics in Germany and the Centro de Astrobiología, part of ...
Scientists report the first confirmed detection of thiepine, a complex sulfur-bearing molecule, in an interstellar cloud near the Milky Way’s center.
Scientists are exploring how DNA’s physical structure can store vast amounts of data and encode secure information.
