In the vast expanse of space, where stars are born and planets take shape, one molecule plays a crucial role in interstellar ...

When the alkali metals react with the different halogens (Group 7 of the periodic table), the group of compounds formed are known as the alkali metals halides. Due to the fact that there are a ...

Chlorine, bromine and iodine are the three common Group 7 elements. Group 7 elements form salts when they react with metals. The term ‘halogen’ means ‘salt former’.

In all instances, the σ-hole was deeper and formed a stronger bond with the nucleophile NH 3. These findings advance our fundamental knowledge of non-covalent interactions based on σ- and π-holes and ...

From helping catalyze interstellar reactions and fueling the birth of stars to its presence in neighborhood gas giants like ...

Now, in a new paper appearing in Nature Communications, Michigan State researchers Piotr Piecuch and Marcos Dantus and their groups and collaborators have provided unprecedented insights into the ...
