The seemingly arbitrary 14.2 kg weight of Indian LPG cylinders stems from decades of engineering and safety considerations. This weight was determined to be manageable for handling, sufficient for ...

Self-driving laboratories (SDLs) powered by artificial intelligence (AI) are rapidly accelerating materials discovery, but can they also explain their results? Researchers from the Theory Department ...

Toward the right side of the periodic table below oxygen, are the chalcogens, or "ore-forming" elements. The chalcogens that occur naturally, including sulfur, selenium and tellurium, are all somehow ...

The reaction can form and break apart ultra-strong sulfur-sulfur bonds within seconds, which could have major implications in multiple fields.

For the first time, scientists have reconstructed the full history of a galaxy outside the Milky Way using chemical clues. By analyzing oxygen across NGC 1365 and comparing it with simulations, they ...

Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars – may have formed from two rings around the young sun, rather than a single disc ...
