Nuclear isomers are crucial probes for studying the structure of nuclei. Unlike chemical isomers—which have the same chemical formula but different arrangements of atoms—nuclear isomers are nuclei ...

A global database of nuclear physics discoveries spanning more than a century has ranked three University of Surrey physicists among the world’s top 10 for discovering and characterising nuclear ...

When UB chemists analyzed samples of water, fish and bird eggs, they weren’t surprised to find plenty of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). After all, these “forever chemicals” turn up nearly ...

Hydrogen is considered a key energy source that is becoming increasingly popular in today’s energy-conscious world. It must be in liquid form for both transport and use. At 298 K, molecular hydrogen ...

Electron capture dissociation produces distinct fragments of amino acid side chains, enabling the identification of isomeric amino acids such as leucine and isoleucine. This application note ...

Conjugated linoleic acid, or CLA, is a fatty acid found in meat and dairy products. As a supplement, it has been marketed primarily as a weight-loss aid. Animal studies suggest that CLA may have other ...

NMR spectroscopy is a powerful technique that is ideally suited to the characterization and analysis of a diverse array of chemical compounds. Unlike many other analytical techniques, NMR spectroscopy ...

2-Methylbutane, commonly known as isopentane, is a branched-chain, saturated hydrocarbon. It has two structural isomers, pentane and neopentane. Branched alkanes constitute the largest group of ...
