The frigid conditions on the surface of Saturn's largest moon, Titan, allow simple molecules in its atmosphere to break one of the most fundamental rules in chemistry, a new study shows. According to ...

For decades, chemistry students have learned a simple truth: polar and nonpolar substances don’t mix. Water and oil stay apart. But researchers from Chalmers University in Sweden and NASA’s Jet ...

A discovery about Saturn's moon Titan has challenged what scientists thought was a basic rule of chemistry. There, in the extreme cold, some supposedly fundamentally incompatible molecules may combine ...

The rules of chemistry on Titan, Saturn's largest moon, may well be rewritten. As a result, the chemistry of life could also be rewritten. An unexpected discovery reveals how frozen crystals of a ...

Titan, the largest moon of Saturn, has defied one of the most fundamental rules of chemistry, a new study has found. In a surprising discovery, the scientists from Chalmers University of Technology in ...

Scientists at JILA, a joint institute of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST)and the University of Colorado at Boulder (CU-Boulder), have applied their expertise in ultracold ...

In molecular crystals that exhibit singlet fission, quantum yields depend strongly on intermolecular configurations that control the relevant electronic couplings. Here, we explore how noncovalent ...
