For decades, noble gases like helium have been considered chemically inert, refusing to form stable bonds under normal conditions. But new research challenges this assumption, revealing that helium ...

An elusive structure involving ... the water complex cations in the helium droplets," Kuma says. "We expect to find previously unobserved, but important, chemical structures in the spectra." ...

A global helium shortage ... examine the structure of all chemicals. “It is one of the most important machines for characterizing when you make something in a chemical lab," Hayes says.

shape and structure. Chemical cartography shows the distribution of elements throughout the Milky Way — from lighter elements, such as hydrogen and helium, to heavier ones, such as carbon ...

Thanks to their simple structure, helium atoms are some of the smallest ... which makes them easy to incorporate into industrial or chemical processes. One major use of liquid helium over ...

This could challenge long-standing ideas about the planet’s internal structure ... chemical-sensing measurements were done at extremely cold, or cryogenic, temperatures. This way prevented ...

"Due to the particle–wave duality of atoms, a helium beam directed at a lattice can behave like a wave and diffract from the periodic structure," Bergin said. "Thermal energy helium atoms ...

they would find helium atoms worked into the crystal structure (known as a lattice) of iron. And indeed, upon inspection, helium atoms were found between iron atoms in the lattice structure—the ...
