With the help of the world's most powerful X-ray laser, European XFEL, a research team led by Goethe University Frankfurt and ...

Remarkably, the dissociation resulted in the formation of a neutral but excited sulfur atom, even though multiple electrons were ejected during the cascade. This phenomenon is at first surprising ...

For the first time, scientists have captured how complex molecules change shape when exposed to UV light—an ultra-fast ...

During the study, the engineers used the quantum property to track the electrical activity of the heart muscles and cells.

For decades, scientists have relied on electrodes and dyes to track the electrical activity of living cells. Now, engineers ...

Thiol groups are chemical compounds that contain a sulfur atom bound to a hydrogen atom. Sulfur atoms are much larger than hydrogen atoms, which means the sulfur atom in a thiol has a strong pull on a ...

Now, engineers have discovered that quantum materials just a single atom thick can do the job - using only light ... material possesses a particular advantage: it naturally forms sulfur vacancies ...

Conventional hard disks are based on ferromagnets—materials in which the magnetic dipoles, or spins, associated with each atom all point in the same direction ... phosphorus and sulfur (Fig. 1).
