Characterization of the equilibrium between acetic acid and its dimer The Gibbs free energy of dimerization of acetic acid at room temperature has been determined with a method based exclusively on (...)

Thanks to the Jet-AILES apparatus, French scientists managed to determine the dimerization free energy of acetic acid at room temperature. They used an analysis method based exclusively on infrared (...)

French researchers showed it is possible to generate self-assembling nanotubes which diameter is actively controlled by the environment acidity. Indeed, they used a basic component which exists (...)

Analysis of the structure of amyloid fibrils of various disease-related proteins, causing pathologies such as Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s and Huntigton’s disease has been the focus of an international (...)

What becomes of natural radionuclides or those resulting from nuclear activity in the environment? The question is all the more crucial following the recent events in Fukushima, given its location by (...)

Although light has been used in medicine for decades, until now, researchers faced a major limitation: only the reachable zones can be treated (skin, esophagus, lungs…). Scientists from SOLEIL (...)

Many stained glass windows have been altered by ages, although they are true medieval treasures. Among the frequently observed pathologies, the browning phenomenon reflects in the appearance of some (...)
