A team of researchers from the University of Ottawa has made significant strides in understanding the ionization of atoms and ...

Researchers have developed innovative methods to control the ionization of atoms and molecules using specially structured light beams, challenging traditional limits. This breakthrough could lead to ...

The plasma interacts with water molecules to generate highly reactive molecules containing oxygen and nitrogen, which ...

From growth hormones to cancer drugs, small molecules play a crucial role in our health. Monitoring them is essential to ...

A multi-institutional team of physicists and engineers has developed a laser-based radiation detection system that operates ...

Cell membranes protect and organize cells. All cells have an outer plasma membrane that regulates not only what enters the cell, but also how much of any given substance comes in. Unlike ...

Inspired by NASA aerospace engineering, this project features a plasma thruster, designed to maximize efficiency and increase ...

(A) The plasma membrane of a cell is a bilayer of glycerophospholipid molecules. (B) A single glycerophospholipid molecule is composed of two major regions: a hydrophilic head (green) and ...

This takes place when molecules diffuse across the cell membrane by travelling through specific transport proteins. It occurs down a concentration gradient - molecules move from an area of high to ...

Summary: Researchers at the University of Ottawa have developed innovative methods to control the ionization of atoms and ...

The same substance that paints the sky with the Northern Lights also appears to enhance plant growth and insect defense, ...
