Physicists are gathering in Pittsburgh March 16 through 20 to share their work during the March meeting of the American Physical Society. Offerings so far look closely at the smallest scales: how ...

For interfacial water molecules, the bending vibration has been reported to be red-shifted, with respect to bulk water 42. ... Such fits are shown as solid lines in Supplementary Fig. 4.

If you cool a solid, the molecules move more slowly and move a little closer together. Step 2 Show an animation to help students compare atoms and molecules in solids and liquids. Explain that the ...

Complex carbon-based molecules are everywhere in the Cosmos.  How many of these molecules are formed is still something of a mystery, particularly for carbon molecules formed by nature on ...

Insoluble molecules can't be read well by either method." Discover the latest in science, tech, and space with over 100,000 subscribers who rely on Phys.org for daily insights.

Using ultra-short laser pulses, he found that hydrogen atoms in water molecules vibrate for longer at higher temperatures. This is abnormal because in the majority of substances a vibration lives ...

Scientists have studied the vibration of four gases using electron microscopy and spectroscopy. Combined with simulations, they measured the increased vibration at 1,000°C compared with room ...

Students may say that the water molecules slow down enough that their attractions hold them together as ice. Note: Students may say that water molecules get closer together to form ice. Water is ...
