Scientists demonstrate the influence of nanoparticles and surrounding ions on the formation of beta-sheet structure in amyloid beta proteins. Protein function and activity is determined by both their ...

What specific processes are responsible for planetary formation and evolution? This is what a recent study published in Astronomy & Astrophysics hopes to address as an international team of ...

This paper describes chiral coordination dimers that emerge based on effectively exclusive chiral self-sorting. The complex also exhibits thermo-/mechano-chromism originating from monomer-dimer ...

We study the following one-dimensional model of annihilating particles. Beginning with all sites of ℤ uncolored, a blue particle performs simple random walk from 0 until it reaches a nonzero red or ...

"These structures likely help to facilitate long-distance intercellular communication essential for heart formation." Lianjie Miao, research assistant professor of pharmacology, is the paper's first ...

A new study led by UNLV scientists sheds light on how planets, including Earth, formed in our galaxy—and why the life and death of nearby stars are an important piece of the puzzle.

Archaeologists have unearthed the oldest known wooden structure, and it’s almost half a million years old. The simple structure — found along a riverbank in Zambia — is made up of two interlocking ...
