Diazonium chemistry offers a stable alternative for silica modification, creating a polymeric-like layer with enhanced hydrolytic stability.

Scientists have uncovered that some atoms in liquids don't move at all—even at extreme temperatures—and these anchored atoms dramatically alter the way materials freeze. Using advanced electron ...

Various chemical analysis techniques can be used to help identify the chemicals present in reaction mixtures or give important information about the products of a chemical reaction. Chromatography is ...

In a new study, researchers discovered that the human brain has four pivotal periods when it goes through marked changes, sparking five "epochs" that last for years. The adolescent phase, for example, ...

The human brain experiences five distinct eras as we age, and each is defined by changes in our neural architecture that influence how we process information, new research shows. The brain changes ...

The brain goes through five distinct phases in life, with key turning points at ages nine, 32, 66 and 83, scientists have revealed. Around 4,000 people up to the age of 90 had scans to reveal the ...

The dark skies during a new moon provide ideal conditions for spotting skywatching targets that would otherwise be outshined by moonlight. The next new moon occurs on Dec. 19 at 8:43 p.m. EST (0143 ...

Phase transitions and critical phenomena are the changes of a system from one regime or state to another exhibiting very different properties, and the unusual effects that occur on the boundary ...

Phase contrast microscopy is a white-light optical microscopy technique that relies on sample-induced phase changes in illumination light to generate images with more information than provided by ...

A Full Moon occurs when the Earth is between the Sun and the Moon. The Moon's orbit creates different phases, including a Full Moon. Full Moons have traditional names, like the Sturgeon Moon. The 2025 ...
