Gold nanoparticles have already shown promise in precisely highlighting brain tumors, “blowing up” individual diseased cells, and developing a lung cancer breath test. Now researchers have created ...

(Nanowerk News) Nanoscale gold particles are currently intensively investigated for possible applications in catalysis, sensing, photonics, biolabelling, drug carriers and molecular electronics. The ...

Nanometer-scale gold particles are currently intensively investigated for possible applications in catalysis, sensing, photonics, biolabeling, drug carriers and molecular electronics Nanometre-scale ...

This is an atomistic model of the Au102(p-MBA)44 particle. Gold: yellow, sulfur: orange, carbon: green, oxygen:r ed, hydrogen: white. Disclaimer: AAAS and EurekAlert! are not responsible for the ...

Small-size (<5 nm) gold nanostructures supported on reducible metal oxides have been widely investigated because of the unique catalytic properties they exhibit in diverse redox reactions. However, ...

In a paper published in Physical Review Journals, the ALICE collaboration reports measurements that quantify the transmutation of lead into gold in CERN’s Large Hadron Collider (LHC). Transforming the ...

A tiny "big bang" set off in Long Island recently created a new type of antimatter that's literally off the charts, scientists announced last week. Dubbed the antihypertriton, the newfound antimatter ...
