Scientists have developed a powerful new computational method that could accelerate the search for next-generation materials capable of turning sunlight into useful chemical energy. The work focuses ...

Scientists unlock computational method to speed up search for materials capable of turning sunlight into fuel ...

A new study shows that ultramarathons damage and replenish red blood cells in ways that could help treat cancer patients.

Yield loss is increasingly driven by molecular variability in thin films, interfaces, and contamination rather than visible defects. Reliability issues often appear first as parametric drift or margin ...

The arterial vasculature is the second most frequently calcified structure in the human body after the skeleton. Calcification of the aorta and aortic valves occurs in most individuals in westernized ...

So far, there was only limited knowledge about how structural changes affect the electronic and optical properties of the many material candidates in this class. A team led by researchers from the ...

Materials engineering is surprisingly important in the cosmetic industry. Nobody wants their foundation to smudge, or their mascara to run. Here, we discuss the science behind the perfect beat.

Oxygen has been the most important gas in our search for life among the cosmos thus far. On Earth, we have it in abundance ...

Scientists created half-Möbius molecules, similar to the Möbius strips common in math classes, but half as twisty. It’s a ...

A new study from the University of Helsinki reveals how plant mitochondria draw molecular oxygen away from chloroplasts, an interaction not previously documented. The discovery sheds new light on how ...

A team at IBM Research has assembled a strange new ring-shaped molecule that bends around like a more complicated Möbius strip ...

A ring of 13 carbon atoms and two chlorine atoms has a remarkable molecular structure that means you would have to go around the loop four times to return to your starting position ...
