At low temperatures, hydrogen atoms move less like particles and more like waves. This characteristic enables "quantum tunneling", the ...

Scientists have directly measured the minuscule electron sharing that makes precious-metal catalysts so effective. Their new technique, IET, reveals how molecules bind and react on metal surfaces with ...

US-Italy researchers have used quantum-mechanical simulations to resolve a decades-old puzzle about how ultraviolet ...

ABSTRACT: Einstein’s energy-momentum relationship, which holds for isolated systems in free space, is not applicable in the space inside a hydrogen atom where potential energy exists. Therefore, the ...

Researchers at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign have developed a new theoretical framework that could dramatically ...

Assessing hyperfine shifts in paramagnetic NMR spectra provides new details on the covalent character of halogen bonded ...

Scientists have developed a new method that can help them probe inside atom’s nucleus. Developed by researchers at MIT, the method uses the atom’s own electrons as “messengers” within a molecule to ...
