Research Summaries

Unusual filling of different sub-shells due to quantum confinement leads to a stable superatom that is also highly magnetic.

Short and long-range electron transfer compete to determine free-charge yield in organic semiconductors.

Researchers discover key details of how to drive photosynthesis in the shade by studying far-red light acclimation in cyanobacteria.

Neural networks determine the amplitude and phase of X-ray pulses, enabling new, high-resolution quantum studies.

Scientists capture the short-lived hydroxyl-hydronium pair and the induced dynamic response in ionized liquid water in unprecedented detail.

Using two methods is better than one when it comes to observing how solar cells form and improving cell properties.

Novel molecular beam scattering apparatus that uses a liquid flat jet can study chemical reactions at the gas liquid interface of volatile liquids.

Photon-deuteron collisions offer insight into the gluons that bind the building blocks of matter—and what it takes to break protons and neutrons apart.

Discovery of a short-lived state could lead to faster and more energy-efficient computing devices.

Scientists map atomic-level changes in the components of a running internal combustion engine using neutron techniques.
