Research entitled "Network Constitutional Isomers" was recently published by Brandon R Clarke* and Gregory N. Tew* in Macromolecules. Using simple variation of catalyst concentration we alter the ...

Photocatalytic hydrogen evolution is a key technology for clean energy conversion, in which platinum (Pt) is widely used as an effective cocatalyst. The anchoring and dispersion of Pt play a decisive ...

Nuclear isomers are crucial probes for studying the structure of nuclei. Unlike chemical isomers—which have the same chemical formula but different arrangements of atoms—nuclear isomers are nuclei ...

Excited quantum states in nature are normally extremely short-lived, and this certainly applies to most nuclei. But what makes the metastable nuclear states different? And how can we exploit them for ...

One hundred years after “nuclear isomers” were first discovered, Philip Walker and Zsolt Podolyák pick five examples of these long-lived, excited nuclear states to show why they are so important in ...
