By examining these chemical patterns in tooth enamel, we can determine whether animals primarily fed on trees and shrubs or ...

For decades, it's been known that subtle chemical patterns exist in metal alloys, but researchers thought they were too minor to matter—or that they got erased during manufacturing. However, recent ...

A logarithmic spiral with a diameter of 500 μm, approximately half the diameter of a sewing needle. Curiosity about a mistake that left tiny dots on a germanium wafer with evaporated metal films led ...

A computer simulation shows metallic alloy where atoms (colored spheres) are arranged in subtle chemical patterns beneath a network of dislocations (green lines). These tangled defects move during ...

Patterns of chemical interactions are thought to create patterns in nature such as stripes and spots. This new study shows that the mathematical basis of these patterns also governs how sperm tail ...

A chemical computer made from a network of enzymes can perform a variety of tasks, like measuring temperatures or identifying substances, without needing to be rebuilt each time. This makes it more ...
