Earth and Mars are mysteriously low in elements like copper and zinc, which are crucial for planetary chemistry and potentially life. A new study overturns old theories by showing that these elements ...

A new “periodic table for machine learning,” is reshaping how researchers explore AI, unlocking fresh pathways for discovery.

A research team involving University of Iowa chemists reports a new oxidation state for a rare earth chemical element, a ...

Understanding the origin of heavy elements on the periodic table is one of the most challenging open problems in all of ...

The willingness of the 4f orbitals of lanthanide metals to participate in chemical reactions is as rare as their presence in ...

Using the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), scientists analyzed far-away bodies -- known as Trans-Neptunian Objects (TNOs) -- and found varying traces of methanol. The discoveries are helping them ...

Researchers developed a machine-learning model that can predict the structures of transition states of chemical reactions in less than a second, with high accuracy. Their model could make it easier ...

There is a mystery machine in the Laboratory floorplan of Blue Prince that doesn't seem to do anything, but it does have a solution.

Heavy metal first hit the airwaves back in the 1970s and 80s, but many of the elders of metal continue to rock, shred, thrash ...

Virtual-PeriodicTable is an open-source project designed to provide a customizable and interactive periodic table. Unlike many existing solutions, this project emphasizes simplicity and accessibility, ...

Emmanuel Lidden, a 24-year-old self-proclaimed "science nerd," aimed to collect every element from the periodic table. However, his pursuit took a drastic turn when he ordered a restricted ...

Heavy ligands such as polyoxometalates are opening a new frontier in actinide chemistry. Studying materials that are both radioactive and rare presents significant challenges. The elements that follow ...
