Unveiling the quantum dance: Experiments reveal nexus of vibrational and electronic dynamics
Nearly a century ago, physicists Max Born and J. Robert Oppenheimer developed an assumption regarding how quantum mechanics plays out in molecules, which are comprised of intricate systems of nuclei and electrons. The Born-Oppenheimer approximation a.....»»
Dynamics of molecular rotors in bulk superfluid helium
Molecules immersed in liquid helium can probe superfluidity since their electronic, vibrational and rotational dynamics can provide valuable cues about the superfluid at the nanoscale. In a new report in Science Advances, Alexander Milner and a team.....»»
Simultaneous synthesis and fixing of covalent organic frameworks
Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are versatile materials composed of interconnected organic molecules held together by covalent bonds. These frameworks can be constructed in two-dimensional or three-dimensional (3D) forms which possess a unique com.....»»
Mammals Preyed on Much Larger Dinosaurs, a Stunning New Fossil Reveals
An extraordinary fossil captures the moment when a hungry mammal attacked a dinosaur.....»»
Caught in the act: Mammal found with teeth sunk in a much larger dinosaur
New fossil from China captures the last moments of a life-or-death struggle. Enlarge / The two skeletons are completely intertwined. (credit: Gang Han) A new fossil described this week captures two intertwined animals ca.....»»
Unusual fossil shows rare evidence of a mammal attacking a dinosaur
Canadian and Chinese scientists have described an unusual fossil from around 125 million years ago that shows a dramatic moment in time when a carnivorous mammal attacked a larger plant-eating dinosaur......»»
Bulky size frustrates radical molecules to boost chemical reactions, shows study
How to harness the potential of highly reactive radical molecules to work in pairs and spur transformative chemistry?.....»»
A key function for tight junctions in embryo models
As a human embryo grows, a set of molecules directs cells as they multiply and take on specific identities and spatial positions within the embryo. In one crucial step known as gastrulation, these signaling molecules guide a single layer of embryonic.....»»
Unimolecular reactions of anti-glycolaldehyde oxide and its reactions with one and two water molecules
Criegee intermediates are produced in the ozonolysis of unsaturated compounds in the atmosphere. These intermediates are especially important because they contribute to the formation of OH radicals during the night and to the formation of secondary o.....»»
Perseverance rover finds organic molecules in Mars’ Jezero Crater
The molecules are associated with life but can be created by other processes. So they aren't proof there was life there, but they are life's building blocks......»»

This eight-armed octopus-like pore detects taste
The neurons in our bodies are dotted with tiny pores that let essential molecules pass in and out of our cells. Neurons need these channels to send the signals that allow us to move, think, and perceive the world around us. Now, structural biologists.....»»
Biologists publish new guidelines to facilitate data sharing of research on disordered proteins
For decades, structural biologists have been working on cracking the molecular 3D structures of proteins to understand their function. But what if a protein doesn't have a fixed structure? For molecules that keep changing their shape all the time, bo.....»»
Click chemistry as a connection tool: Grand opportunities and challenges
Click chemistry could help to synthesize a variety of molecules quickly and reliably by piecing together small units. In particular, it emphasizes the development of new combinatorial chemistry methods based on the synthesis of carbon-heteroatomic bo.....»»
Prehistoric "bone bed" unveiled in Maryland"s Dinosaur Park
When Argentinian geologist Federico Alvarez Hazer immigrated to Baltimore one year ago to live with his wife, he imagined that his days working on fossil dig sites close to home—as he had in South America's Patagonia region—were over......»»
New study reveals evidence of diverse organic material on Mars
A new study featuring data from the NASA Mars Perseverance rover reports on an instrumental detection potentially consistent with organic molecules on the Martian surface, hinting toward past habitability of the Red Planet. The research, led by a tea.....»»
