Supercritical water, a mysterious state where water behaves like both a liquid and gas, has long puzzled scientists.

Birefringent crystalline materials are essential in advanced optical technologies such as isolators and modulators due to ...

Hydrogen atoms are close together. The electron from each atom feels the attraction from the proton in the nucleus of the other atom. This attraction pulls the atoms together and the electrons are ...

Researchers at Ruhr University Bochum, Germany, have shed light on the structure of supercritical water. In this state, which ...

Charged amino acid side chains can form ionic bonds, and polar amino acids are capable of forming hydrogen bonds. Hydrophobic side chains interact with each other via weak van der Waals interactions.

Computational analysis provides new insights into silk's mechanical properties that was unavailable experimentally ...

When exposed to high temperatures and pressure, water enters a state in which liquid and gas can no longer be distinguished. For a long time, there has been controversy about how this looks like on a ...
