Theoretical predictions have been confirmed with the discovery of an outflow of molecular gas from a quasar when the Universe was less than a billion years old. Theoretical predictions have been ...

The discovery of molecular gas getting spewed from a quasar that existed around 13 billion years ago confirms some star-formation theories. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an ...

The spectrum of a substance — how it interacts with light — provides fundamental insight into its composition. A large number of molecules is typically required to obtain a detectable light-absorption ...

Rare co-operative adsorption mechanism enables metal-organic framework to bind two carbon monoxide molecules at each metal ...

Pressure, by definition, is the force exerted per unit area. Thus, the pressure exerted by a gas on the walls of its ...

NASA's SOFIA observatory captured a rare image of a glowing gas ring in Cygnus X — a vast star-forming region 4,500 ...

The space between stars is not empty—it contains a vast reservoir of diffuse material with about 5-10% of the total mass of our Milky Way galaxy. Most of the material is gas, but about 1% of this mass ...

Talk about twisted science! This year, chemists reached new heights of knottiness with “perplexanes,” entangled molecules with fiendishly complex topology (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2025, DOI: ...
