New research led by Flinders University has shed light on one of chemistry's big mysteries by describing how simple salts exist near the surface of liquid solvents.

Two solvation models are available in NWChem: COSMO and SMD. Since some of the COSMO parameters are used for SMD, we suggest to read the COSMO section before the SMD one. COSMO is the continuum ...

The proteins tend to adopt a structure that minimizes the overall free energy of the system. There are no kinetic constraints (energy barriers) that prevent them from reaching this low energy state, ...

Analytical chemists are increasingly considering sustainability, yet traditional organic solvents remain prevalent in practice. Green solvent selection guides, such as CHEM21, evaluate solvents based ...

As a professional actor, your demo reel is your calling card. It’s often the most important element in getting chosen for an audition or a self-tape. But what makes a reel stand out among the ...

The late Stanley Fischer, a renowned economist and central banker, observed in a 2012 lecture at Oxford that financial crises “take much longer to develop than you expect, and then . . . they happen ...

Solvents that reversibly switch from being hydrophobic to hydrophilic or between extremes in ionic strength simply by the addition or removal of carbon dioxide are being reported by Philip G. Jessop ...
