Different atoms and ions possess characteristic energy levels. Like a fingerprint, they are unique for each species. Among ...

Researchers from Skoltech have uncovered physical principles governing the remote "tuning" of nanocatalysts, where the ...

Open a jewelry box or pause in front of a stained-glass window, and you are seeing one of nature’s quieter tricks at work. The color, in these cases, is not painted on. It comes from the atoms ...

The electronic structure of atoms and molecules is the series of energy levels that it are possible for a bound electron to occupy. This electronic structure determines many of the defining ...

The fundamental process of gene transcription can be reconstituted in vitro, but an understanding of how it operates and how it is regulated in vivo is lacking. One hypothesis suggests that, rather ...
