The detection of the molecule phosphine in a brown dwarf’s atmosphere may help astronomers in their search for life elsewhere ...

Chemists have achieved a new feat in the realm of chemical design and synthesis: They've helped create the first example of a synthetic molecule, with an asymmetric oxygen atom as its centerpiece, ...

A view inside the trapped-ion quantum computer that carried out a first-of-its-kind simulation of molecular chemistry. A single atom has performed the first full quantum simulations of how certain ...

Carbon dioxide is made up of one carbon atom covalently bonded to two oxygen atoms. Although electrons are shared, they are not shared equally between the carbon and the oxygen atoms. The oxygen atom ...

What if everything scientists ever thought about the universe’s earliest chemical reactions was wrong? Recent tests have turned decades of theory on its head, showing that the first molecular ...
