Scientists have decoded the electronic structure of water, opening up new perspectives for technological and environmental applications. There is no doubt that water is significant. Without it, life ...

The left image shows a crystal structure of dynamic water molecule cluster like liquid at −20 °C in the supercooled water state revealed previously by X-ray structural analysis. The right image shows ...

Water is all around us, yet its surface layer—home to chemical reactions that shape life on Earth—is surprisingly hard to study. Experiments at SLAC's X-ray laser are bringing it into focus.

Liquids and solutions are complex environments—think, for example, of sugar dissolving in water, where each sugar molecule ...

Researchers at Google Quantum AI have used their Willow quantum computer to help interpret data from Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, a mainstay of chemistry and biology research. The ...

Water trapped in between molecules behaves differently than free-flowing water, as it holds more energy. Researchers found that when another molecule displaces that water, the energy that the water ...

Despite being one of the most familiar substances on Earth, water holds many secrets that scientists are still working to understand. When confined to extremely small spaces—such as within certain ...

There is no doubt that water is significant. Without it, life would never have begun, let alone continue today – not to mention its role in the environment itself, with oceans covering over 70% of ...
