Ever wonder what happens when a speedy electron slams into a molecule? It’s not a gentle bump! The impact can be so intense that it kicks one of the molecule’s electrons out, fundamentally changing the molecule. This high-impact process is called ionisation. In some...

How do scientists study complex molecules, especially those with heavy atoms? It’s a challenge of immense scale. The sheer number of electrons makes a complete calculation computationally intensive and often impractical. This is a core challenge in quantum chemistry,...

When you think about cutting edge technology, perhaps AI or quantum computing springs to mind. But often, the most important work happens at a much smaller scale: controlling atomic-level processes in semiconductor manufacturing. This is the core of modern...
