Spectral patterns of benzene dimer finally deciphered
22 April, 2013A spectrum of the benzene dimer was first recorded in 1993, with the aim to find out more about its structure and dynamics. The experiments produced characteristic patterns with four peaks, which no one could decipher for 20 years. Now, using a new theoretical model and the experimental data gathered in Berlin, the spectral patterns have been successfully deciphered and the dynamics that cause them explained.

What happens when a chemical bond is broken?
09 April, 2013That question was recently answered with the help of a so-called free electron X-ray laser, which makes it possible to follow in real time how bindings in a molecule are changed and broken. The study, published in Science, found, among other things, evidence of a much-discussed intermediate state before molecules bind to or leave a metal surface. The possibility of monitoring at the molecular level how the electron structure changes in a chemical reaction creates entirely new opportunities for investigating and understanding key chemical processes in detail.
Mechanism of Click chemistry reveals its secrets
08 April, 2013Click chemistry is not a specific reaction but rather chemistry tailored to generate substances quickly and reliably by joining small units together. It is meant to mimic nature which also generates substances by joining small modular units (eg, amino acids into proteins). But precisely how it works had been unclear since its invention at The Scripps Research Institute (TSRI) more than a decade ago.
Is antimatter the result from the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer experiment?
04 April, 2013The Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer (AMS), the most powerful and sensitive particle physics spectrometer ever deployed in space, has had its first results published.
