An
important chemical species, molecular oxygen is linear, has an
anisotropic shape, and spins from two unpaired electrons. However, until
now, we didn’t know how these properties influenced important oxidation
reactions. Researchers in Japan have now reported development of the
world's first molecular oxygen beam that can designate the alignment of
the molecular axis and spin direction.

Natural
pigments contain colorful molecules known as poryphyrins, which lend
vibrant colors through macrocyclic chemical structure that link several
small rings together in an “aromatic” framework. Sometimes, however,
synthesis causes the aromaticity to disappear. Researchers in Japan now
report a new way to manipulate the peculiar aromatic properties of
macrocycles.

NASA’s
next flagship mission, the James Webb Space Telescope, will carry the
largest primary mirror ever deployed in space. Researchers has borrowed a
page from its segmented mirror design to create a similar example just a
half-inch in diameter. Strangely, the tiny mirror may one day become
the standard for future space telescopes.

There's nothing like a new pair of eyeglasses to bring fine details into sharp relief. For scientists who study the large molecules of life from proteins to DNA, the equivalent of new lenses have come in the form of an advanced method for analyzing data from X-ray crystallography experiments. The findings could lead to new understanding of the molecules that drive processes in biology, medical diagnostics, nanotechnology, and other fields.

Scientists from SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, Stanford University, and Germany have figured out a key part of the industrial process for making methanol. It’s an important step toward improving the process—and eventually realizing the goal of turning a potent greenhouse gas, carbon dioxide, into fuel.

Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory researchers have reported the first direct observation of nanoparticles undergoing oriented attachment, the critical step in biomineralization and the growth of nanocrystals. A better understanding of oriented attachment in nanoparticles is a key to synthesizing new materials with remarkable structural properties.
