If you take your frozen burgers out of the freezer only to discover that they have turned green, is this a sign of trouble?

Oxidation and reduction are complementary electron-transfer processes that underpin redox chemistry and many biological and industrial transformations. Oxidation is defined as the loss of electrons, ...

Like a delicate fabric that becomes damaged during drying, a promising next-generation battery material has faced an unexpected challenge: Removing water to improve performance can actually shorten ...

In an international experiment, researchers observed Jahn–Teller polarons—quasiparticles that could play an important role in future ultrafast spintronic devices. These polarons emerged within the ...

Deep below our feet, manganese may exist in a form we have never seen before, and this underground source of the metal could have played a role in the story of how Earth got its oxygen. Until about 2 ...

Energy storage usually brings to mind batteries, capacitors, tanks of hydrogen, or maybe some giant gravity system hauling ...

Until now, it was generally believed that gold simply does not react with oxygen and therefore does not discolor. On May 21, ...

Gold has long stood apart from other metals. It does not rust like iron or tarnish like silver. Its shine endures across centuries, even in open air. For years, scientists believed this stability came ...

New PNAS-listed alkaline thermochemical process produces CO₂-free hydrogen from PET, PE and PP without plastic sorting ...

From building the Centre for Pulse EPR at Imperial to probing electron transfer in real time, Maxie Rößler is pushing an overlooked technique into the spotlight ...

An international research team, including scientists from the University of Adelaide, have developed a highly efficient ...

Many experts say this makes a difference, depending on the bourbon. Either way, it's a good excuse to host a taste test to ...
