Empa researchers have experimentally recreated a fundamental theoretical model from quantum physics, originally proposed by Nobel Prize winner Werner Heisenberg. The experiment was based on "quantum ...

For the homogeneous Heisenberg chain, the researchers used the nanographene molecule Olympicen, which consists of five carbon rings. In 2024, Empa researchers and their partners successfully for the ...

You may have noticed that the rock formations are very different colors. The rock formations on the left are from Red Rock State Park in Texas, and on the right is El Capitan Mountain in Yosemite ...

In 2018, a team led by McGuire reported the discovery of benzonitrile -- a six-carbon ring attached to a nitrile (carbon-nitrogen) group -- in TMC-1. To make this discovery, they used the GBT, which ...

Posts from this topic will be added to your daily email digest and your homepage feed. AlphaFold 3 uses the same method as AI image generators to predict how different molecules fit together.

From structure confirmation to methodology improvements, making complex natural products has driven innovation in organic ...

Sample loss has been a persistent problem in cryo-EM, a high-tech method for creating 3D models of molecules that reveals their inner structures. It occurs during an essential step of imaging ...
