Common in nature and found in DNA and amino acids, chiral molecules are asymmetric with a structure that’s different from its mirror image. Chiral amino acids are “left-handed” and cannot be swapped ...

Lasers are used to carry out functions ranging from reading a bar code label at the grocery store to shooting down enemy missiles in space. Now, chemists at Purdue University are using lasers to coax ...

Last week, Google released a much-anticipated upgrade for its AlphaFold software, which harnesses artificial intelligence to predict the shape and structure of molecules within the human body. Any ...

Google LLC’s quantum division today released research showing that its Willow quantum chip can provide elegant and accurate simulations about the physical properties of molecules much faster than ...

Chemists have discovered a new molecular shape, and it is twice as odd as the twisty Möbius strip. The Möbius strip is a looped band with a twist, such that something tiny, such as an ant, would have ...

Water behaves in remarkable ways when heated and pressurized beyond its critical point. Under these extreme conditions, known as supercritical water, it no longer acts like an ordinary liquid. Instead ...
