Once thought unlikely, this new finding in coordination chemistry could lead to promising advances in catalysis and materials science. For more than 100 years, the widely accepted 18-electron rule has ...

Dark matter is one of nature's most confounding mysteries. It keeps particle physicists up at night and cosmologists glued to ...

Despite years of medical progress, cancer remains one of the top causes of death globally, with millions of people diagnosed ...

Understanding whether lakes are fed predominantly by groundwater or rainwater is critical to managing our water resources in ...

The current AI race has reached a bottleneck that can be relieved only by new sources of electrical generation. Read more ...

The precursors of heavy elements might arise in the plasma underbellies of swollen stars or in smoldering stellar corpses.

Stable isotope probing (SIP) experiments in conjunction with Raman microspectroscopy (Raman) or nano-scale secondary ion mass spectrometry (NanoSIMS) are frequently used to explore single cell ...

Stable isotopes are the starting material for radioisotope manufacturing. The Nusano stable isotope program extracts high purity, enriched stable isotopes from naturally available elements. This ...

Teeth from sharks and rays can be used to study their diet, but one of the biggest challenges in shark science is collecting samples from rare or protected species.

Lithium atoms exist as two stable isotopes: lithium-7 makes up 92.5 per cent of the element in nature and the rest is lithium-6. The rarer isotope reacts much more efficiently with neutrons to ...

Deuterium, a stable isotope of hydrogen, plays a critical role in enhancing the durability and luminous efficiency of semiconductors and display devices, as well as serving as a fusion fuel in ...
