In the very cold regions of the interstellar medium (10-30 K), desorption induced by low-energy (7-14 eV) UV photons can explain the abundances of molecules in the gas phase, at temperatures well (...)

Voltage-gated sodium channels are complex proteins present in the membranes of all higher organisms that are responsible for the transport of sodium ions into and out of cells. In humans, sodium (...)

Unlike soft condensed matter, crystalline solids are not particularly subject to phase change effects under illumination. With the emergence of nanometric size solids, this resistance to radiation has (...)

“MAX phases” are materials that combine the properties of metals and ceramics: refractoriness, damage tolerance, resistance to thermal shock, oxidation and corrosion, and conservation of mechanical (...)

Fluorescence imaging is an emerging technique for biomedical applications. It can be used to observe and track a specific target (constituents of the cell, pathogen, active ingredient, etc.) in real (...)

Combination of SMIS beamline synchrotron radiation and ZnSe hemisphere has allowed INRA researchers to obtain single yeast infrared spectra. The comparative analysis of infrared spectra of yeasts with (...)

On Tuesday February 11, SOLEIL will be at Supelec for the 17th edition of the annual “Bouge la Science!” day. This event allows middle and high school students to discover scientific experiments with (...)

Graphene ribbons in which the electrons move freely: that is the feat accomplished by an international team of research scientists from the CNRS, the University of Lorraine, and the SOLEIL synchrotron (...)

The atelier FemtoARPES and the CASSIOPEE beamline have published in Phys. Rev. Lett. new results on systems with strong spin-orbit coupling. The pump-induced dichroism observed in non-centrosymmetric (...)

Small GTPases of the Arf family are chief organizers of cellular traffic, the process that targets proteins and lipids to the precise locations in cells where they carry out their functions. The team (...)

Through a long standing collaboration between the University of Nottingham and the DESIRS beamline team, scientists have used the technique of photoelectron circular dichroism (PECD) to study chiral (...)

A team made of French (IRAMIS, CEA, CNRS, Synchrotron SOLEIL), Brazilian (State University of Campinas, Federal University of Goiàs), Austrian (ISSSP Linz University) and Romanian (Material Physics (...)
