The interaction between solid matter and positron (the antiparticle of electron) has provided important insights across a variety of disciplines, including atomic physics, materials science, ...

Silicate glasses with metallic nanoparticles (NPs) have been of intense interest in art, science and technology as the plasmonic properties of these NPs equip glass with light modulation capability.

A new international study, has revealed insights into the mechanisms underlying radiation damage at the molecular level. The research, published in Nature Chemistry, reveals how extensive, localized ...

We now focus on the character of the core-excited CTTS states from the perspective of electronic-structure theory. Simulated XAS are presented in Fig. 2 panels (b)–(d), which were performed at the ...

A member of an important class of ion channel proteins can transiently rearrange itself into a larger structure with dramatically altered properties, according to a new study. The discovery is a ...

Research groups led by Prof. Xu Tongwen and Prof. Li Xingya from the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) have proposed the concept of total dehydration of ions, and prepared ...
