Molecular hydrogen is normally a gas at room temperature, but when crushed with diamond anvils, it can convert into a totally different, previously unknown state of matter, according to a team of ...

Scientists are on a journey to uncover clues about hydrogen’s most elusive phase—solid metallic hydrogen. The prize for discovering it could be room temperature superconductivity—a world first. But ...

Hydrogen is the most abundant element in the Universe. Its molecular-gas state is simple, but its solid state has proved to be complex. In 1935, it was predicted that solid hydrogen should behave like ...

Is solid hydrogen the breakthrough the world has been waiting for? In this video, we explore how solid hydrogen works, why ...

Magnesium hydride has long been touted for its potential to store large amounts of hydrogen, something essential if hydrogen is to play a role in powering a sustainable future. Yet, sluggish ...

Hydrogen (H2) is an extremely simple molecule and yet a valuable raw material which as a result of the development of sophisticated catalysts is becoming more and more important. In industry and ...

Scientists have measured the shortest unit of time ever: the time it takes a light particle to cross a hydrogen molecule. That time, for the record, is 247 zeptoseconds. A zeptosecond is a trillionth ...

The time it takes for a single particle of light to pass through a hydrogen molecule is now the shortest duration ever measured. This interval was about 247 zeptoseconds, or trillionths of a billionth ...

A study published in Angewandte Chemie International Edition by researchers from Nagoya Institute of Technology, the University of Limoges, and the Indian Institute of Technology Madras explores the ...

A group of researchers has identified the key stumbling block of a common solid-state hydrogen material, paving the way for future design guidelines and widespread commercial use. Details of their ...
