A group of researchers at the University of Tokyo have spent years testing the limits of chemical bonds. And now, after years of work, they've finally explored an idea originally proposed in 1931: a ...

Illustration of intracluster bond formation, cluster containing two biomolecules, being exposed to UV light (left), causes a chemical bond forming between the two molecules (center), resulting in a ...

Separating heavy elements from one another is one of the biggest challenges of nuclear waste management. A new type of bonding between metals and ligands in actinide complexes opens new bonding ...

Scientists have managed to successfully make a transuranium complex where the central metal, here neptunium, forms a multiple bond to just one other element. Enabling study of such a bonding ...

Light-induced breakage of chemical bonds can lead to damage in the body and environment, but techniques for studying this photochemical reaction have been limited to before and after snapshots. With ...
