A new topology-based method predicts atomic charges in metal-organic frameworks from bond connectivity alone, making large-scale computational screening practical.

Scientists have long known that Earth's core is mostly made of iron, but the density is not high enough for it to be pure ...

After years of confusion, a new study confirms the proton is tinier than once thought. That enables a test of the standard model of particle physics.

New experiments suggest that Earth’s core may store vast hidden reserves of life-essential hydrogen.

Earth's core contains nine to 45 times more hydrogen than the planet's oceans do, according to a new study that could settle a debate about when and how hydrogen was delivered to Earth.

Physicists have finally watched positronium, a short‑lived atom made of an electron and its antimatter twin, behave like a rippling quantum wave instead of a tiny billiard ball. In a set of ...

Picture all of Earth’s oceans, which cover about 70% of the planet and are mostly made of hydrogen. Now multiply that by nine ...

Eugene Hütz got his first taste of faraway New York in 1989. He was just 14 then and growing up in Ukraine, when an uncompromising rock band called Sonic Youth exploded his mind with waves of ...

Has the dawn of the nuclear fusion age arrived? One developer of the powerful energy-generating tech says it will be ...

The ill-fated 1997 TV pilot that the world never saw featured a bizarre, out-of-character lineup of DC's iconic heroes.

Iridium oxide is one of the most important—and most problematic—materials in the global push toward clean energy. It is ...
