During those very early moments of the universe, things were extraordinarily hot, and quark-gluon plasma behaves in strange ...

The key change is an ancient defense system. Basically, these tomatoes are manufacturing a version of an alkaloid whose ...

In modern devices, such as phone screens or advanced sensors, light is often generated by pairs of organic molecules, where one molecule, known as the donor, transmits electrons, and the other, ...

An attosecond—or 0.000000000000000001 second—is no time at all for a person. That is not so for electrons, atoms and molecules, and laser-wielding scientists are revealing the action ...

Scientists at ETH Zurich have developed a powerful method to look deep inside single-atom catalysts—materials where every ...

Look inside a brain cell with Huntington's disease or ALS and you are likely to find RNA clumped together. These solid-like clusters, thought to be irreversible, can act as sponges that soak up ...

Researchers have identified a new complex molecule in space called cyanocoronene. It is a type of hydrocarbon composed of ...

A quiet, glowing gas cloud has been hiding in plain sight not far from Earth. For decades, astronomers have predicted that some of the galaxy’s molecular gas — the fuel for star birth — might be ...

A new molecule may soon enable tiny hard drives that store vastly more data. Withstanding extreme cold, it paves the way for ...

President-elect Donald Trump has tapped business leaders Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy to head up the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), an initiative that isn’t really a department ...
