Scientists are exploring a bold new approach to protect Earth from dangerous asteroids: detonating nuclear devices to either ...

Chirality -- a geometric property that allows molecules to exist in two distinct forms that are chemically identical but are 3D mirror images of each other, like a right and left hand -- has a ...

Physicist John Nichol uses equipment such as a dilution refrigerator to study quantum systems. He recently provided the first direct evidence of a quantum state called the nuclear-spin dark state, a ...

Researchers have discovered that nuclear spin influences biological processes, challenging long-held beliefs. They found that certain isotopes behave differently in chiral environments, affecting ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — The same technology behind MRI images of injury or disease also powers nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, which is used to analyze biological molecules for research ...
