As global efforts to combat climate change continue, demand for solar energy is growing. However, since the current most-used ...

A closer look showed that they are made of interstellar ice (containing both water ice and organic molecules) and dust. But a follow-up study recently published in The Astrophysical Journal found ...

Peatlands are wetland ecosystems in which the rate of production of organic ... contain sedge and Ericaceae plots in a Sphagnum matrix. Porewater was collected monthly immediately after spring ...

This patent highlight describes a series of novel 2-pyrrolidone derivatives that act as negative allosteric modulators (NAMs) of GluN2B-containing N-methyl-d-aspartic acid receptors (NMDARs). These ...

now extend the scope of deracemizations to alkyl halides — compounds that contain carbon–halogen bonds ... available chiral ligand (an organic molecule that binds to the copper atoms) in ...

These included several classes of chlorinated and sulphur-containing organic compounds in Gale crater sedimentary rocks, with chemical structures of up to six carbon atoms. The new discovery doubles ...

NASA’s Curiosity Mars rover has detected the largest organic (carbon-containing) molecules ever found on the red planet. The discovery is one of the most significant findings in the search for ...

It is further used for the production of zinc alloys (e.g. brass), rolled zinc, zinc dust (a pigment and a reducing agent), and zinc compounds (e.g. zinc oxide). A range of organic zinc compounds ...
