- Catalyst for electronically controlled C-H functionalization
The Chirik Group at the Princeton Department of Chemistry is chipping away at one of the great challenges of metal-catalyzed C-H functionalization with a new method that uses a cobalt catalyst to d...
- How water turns into ice - with quantum accuracy
A team based at Princeton University has accurately simulated the initial steps of ice formation by applying artificial intelligence (AI) to solving equations that govern the quantum behavior of in... - New findings about moving electricity could improve fusion devices
Researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL) have found that updating a mathematical model to include a physical property known as resistivity cou...
- New study on plastics paves the way for better products
A breakthrough by researchers at the University of South Florida (USF) and collaborating institutions around the world could pave the way for better products, such as improved batteries, automobile...
- Teaching an enzyme a new trick, with potential for building new molecules
Princeton chemists have found a way to make a naturally occurring enzyme take on a new, artificial role, which has significant implications for modern chemistry, including pharmaceutical production... - Using light to turn yeast into biochemical factories
Researchers at Princeton University have now applied a similar method to controlling the metabolism, or basic chemical process, of a living cell. In a series of experiments, they used light to cont... - New process could slash energy demands of fertilizer, nitrogen-based chemicals
Manufacturers currently make fertilizer, pharmaceuticals and other industrial chemicals by pulling nitrogen from the air and combining it with hydrogen. Nitrogen gas is plentiful, making up about 7...
- Coffee physics
For anyone who has marveled at the richly colored layers in a cafe latte, you're not alone. Princeton researchers, likewise intrigued, have now revealed how this tiered structure develops when espr... - Trade-off between reducing air pollution, but increasing greenhouse gas emissions
Severe air pollution has plagued China's industrial regions in recent decades, a situation that has received worldwide attention thanks to photos of Beijing and other smog-blanketed Chinese cities....
- Unconventional quasiparticles predicted in conventional crystals
The research, published online this week in the journal Science, was conducted by a team at Princeton University in collaboration with researchers at the Donostia International Physics Center (DIPC... - Better method of crystal production developed
Be it in phyics, metallurgy, gemology or engineering, the applications of crystals are very broad. A research team including Christos Likos and Lorenzo Rovigatti from the Faculty of Physics of the ...
- Discovery of a new particle
Studying peculiar properties of a long known metallic material researchers have chanced upon a new particle. It is related to the so-called Weyl fermions that the mathematician Hermann Weyl predict... - Catalytic alkene carboamination by oxidative proton-coupled electron transfer
Researchers at Princeton have developed a new chemical reaction that breaks the strongest bond in a molecule instead of the weakest, completely reversing the norm for reactions in which bonds are e...
