MXenes are an emerging class of two-dimensional materials whose properties depend sensitively on the atoms bound to their surfaces. A new synthesis approach now allows researchers to control these ...
Physicists in Leiden have built a microscope that can measure no fewer than four key properties of a material in a single ...
When a cell divides, it performs a feat of microscopic choreography—duplicating its DNA and depositing it into two new cells.
The enzyme Na⁺-NQR is a sodium pump that drives the respiration of many marine and pathogenic bacteria. Using redox reactions, the ...
What is connectomics? The field comprehensively mapping connections between synapses to reshape what we know about the brain.
The enzyme Na⁺-NQR is a sodium pump that drives the respiration of many marine and pathogenic bacteria. Using redox reactions, the ...
A tiny algae recently discovered in India is helping to reconstruct how the oceans moved millions of years ago.
Scientists have a solid understanding of what makes up spindles — the cellular machinery that separates chromosomes — but are less certain about how the building blocks of spindles, called ...
A new study reveals how neatly ordered (hemi-) spherical or pancake like structures in nature can emerge from completely disordered salt solutions. Moreover, scientists can now harness these ...
Research findings are available online in the Astrophysical Journal. The original story “ Student made cosmic dust in the lab revealing life’s early chemical origins ” is published in The Brighter ...
That’s because the trunk is highly sensitive when it comes to sensing touch. Scientists have determined that the whiskers ...
The famed collider at Brookhaven National Laboratory has ended operations, but if all goes to plan, a new collider will rise ...
