In atomic physics and quantum chemistry, the electron configuration is the arrangement of electrons in an atom, molecule, or other physical structure (e.g., a crystal). Like other elementary particles ...

A groundbreaking cryo-electron microscopy image shows in extreme detail how a novel therapeutic molecule interacts with a protein, giving researchers insights into how it works in the human body. The ...

Electron microscopy researchers have developed a unique way to build 3-D structures with finely controlled shapes as small as one to two billionths of a meter. The study demonstrates how scanning ...

Achieving state-of-the-art accuracy in molecular property prediction using self-supervised AI, enabling cost-effective modeling based on electron-level information without quantum calculations ...

Traditional computational science and AI methods have been limited in utilizing electron-level information—essential for determining molecular properties—due to the excessive cost of quantum ...

(Nanowerk News) The key to maximizing traditional or quantum computing speeds lies in our ability to understand how electrons behave in solids, and a collaboration between the University of Michigan ...

For the first time, scientists visualized how electrons behave during a chemical reaction, which could help reduce unwanted ...

We used 600-femtosecond electron pulses to study the structural evolution of aluminum as it underwent an ultrafast laser-induced solid-liquid phase transition. Real-time observations showed the loss ...
