Earth and Mars are mysteriously low in elements like copper and zinc, which are crucial for planetary chemistry and potentially life. A new study overturns old theories by showing that these elements ...

A research team involving University of Iowa chemists reports a new oxidation state for a rare earth chemical element, a ...

The willingness of the 4f orbitals of lanthanide metals to participate in chemical reactions is as rare as their presence in ...

How core-mantle differentiation influenced the distribution of volatile elements on Earth. Imagine Earth's history as a ...

Researchers at HSE University and the Institute of Petrochemical Synthesis of the Russian Academy of Sciences have discovered ...

"All the odd shapes and swirling gas observed in the Perseus cluster now make sense within the context of a major merger." ...

Microbeam analysis of zircon U-Th-Pb isotope systematics and trace element compositions is a routine task in the ICPMS facility using the ThermoElectron X-Series II quadrupole ICPMS and New Wave ...

Specifically, we investigated the degree of melting of Earth’s early mantle – and the behaviour of chemical elements during this process. Our results showed Earth’s earliest crust – known ...
