High-efficiency water splitting process revealed
Reaction of high interest to clean-energy innovations is closely analysed in X-ray study
17-Feb-2023
Experiments at DESY’s light sources PETRA III and FLASH have revealed the complex mode of action behind the artificial splitting of water at its most efficient level. Using X-rays, a team led by DESY leading scientist Simone Techert managed to observe the interaction of water with a perovskite, a ...
Tsunami in a water glass
Live observation of the birth of an electron dissolved in water
17-Feb-2023
A new experiment has made it possible to observe the effects of an electron in solution on the surrounding liquid. So-called hydrated electrons play a major role in many physical, chemical and biological processes. They are not bound to an atom or molecule and are free in the solution. Since they ...
Method found for analysing complex, tiny crystals
15-Feb-2023
The atomic structure of solid substances can often be analysed quickly, easily and very precisely using X-rays. However, this requires that crystals of the corresponding substances exist. Chemist Professor Oliver Oeckler from Leipzig University and his team are developing methods to make this ...
Different X-ray techniques combined
Sophisticated mix of methods offers improved structure analysis
09-Feb-2023
Sometimes scientists have to accept that a method they have used for years fails under certain conditions. Such a failure calls for a careful analysis of the shortcomings and their subsequent elimination. An international team from the University of Regensburg, the University of Durham and the ...
The chemistry of mummification
Specific substances for certain parts of the body
06-Feb-2023
A international team of researchers from LMU and University of Tübingen is unveiling the secrets of ancient Egyptian embalming. Vessels from a workshop in Saqqara are providing new insights into the substances that were used to preserve human bodies. Exactly 100 years ago, the tomb of Tutankhamun ...
Precise X-ray thermometer for warm dense matter
New method for temperature determination opens horizon for a multitude of experiments virtually unfeasible up to now
06-Feb-2023
Warm dense matter (WDM) measures thousands of degrees in temperature and is under the pressure of thousands of Earth's atmospheres. Found in many places throughout the universe, it is expected to have beneficial applications on Earth. However, its investigation is a challenge. Even the ...
An illuminated water droplet creates an ‘optical atom’
The findings open up the possibility of measuring chemical or biological contaminants in water droplets quickly and easily
03-Feb-2023
Shining light on a water droplet creates effects analogous to what happens in an atom. This can help us understand how atoms work, write researchers from the University of Gothenburg in a new journal article. If you whisper by the wall in the dome of St Paul's Cathedral in London, you'll discover ...
