During chemical reactions, atoms in the reacting substances break their bonds and re-arrange, forming different chemical products. This process entails the movement of both electrons (i.e., negatively ...

For the first time, scientists have recorded electrons in the act of snapping chemical bonds, turning an abstract quantum ...

Recent advances in electron density analysis and X‐ray diffraction studies have dramatically refined our understanding of atomic and molecular structures. By employing cutting‐edge techniques that ...

Cycloaddition reactions represent a cornerstone of synthetic organic chemistry, facilitating the formation of cyclic structures through concerted pericyclic processes. Traditionally explained via ...

Much has been made of the excessive power demands of AI, but solutions are sparse. This has led engineers to consider ...

The video describes melting processes of an electron Wigner crystal into electron liquid phases. As the electron density (\nu, a measure of number of electrons in a magnetic field, is controlled by ...

The distribution of outermost shell electrons, known as valence electrons, of organic molecules was observed for the first time. As the interactions between atoms are governed by the valence electrons ...

Charge density waves are a central feature of many quantum materials and often coexist or compete with other electronic ...
