Yes. Such condensates, analogous to those in carbon-12, in heavier nuclei could change how we describe certain elements.
A novel experimental geometry at the Linac Coherent Light Source reveals, for the first time, how silicon responds to shocks similar to those in a planet’s core.
Scientists discover why solar flares produce X-rays; a few electrons avoid collisions and accelerate to produce a microsecond burst.
The 3.7-billion-year-old structures were considered the first evidence for life on the planet; new evidence suggests differently.
Scientists use implanted silicon ions and electricity to increase the spin time of quantum bits, moving closer to the tech needed for quantum networks.
Molybdenum-based complex harvests light to make inert nitrogen gas reactive to potentially become part of fertilizer.
Scientists catch details with atomic resolution, potentially helping design systems to use sunlight and water to produce fuels.

Far from being a mere spectator, solvents can play a larger role in chemical reactions, likely including those used in energy storage and biology.
Scientists determine the accuracy of computational methods used to study the sulfate radical approach to purifying water.
Hydrogel pores can modify the molecular-level motion of water and dissolved ions.
Direct interactions dominate ion adsorption to aqueous graphene, a process central to vital processes in energy technology.
Characterizing carbon stored in deeper sediments below soils is critical for understanding the stability and dynamics of Earth’s carbon pool.
