How molecules teeter in a laser field

When molecules interact with the oscillating field of a laser, an instantaneous, time-dependent dipole is induced. This very general effect underlies diverse physical phenomena. Now scientists report on an experiment where the dependence of the driven-dipole response on the bound state of an electron in a methyl iodine molecule is revealed. from Top Technology News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/01/190117113337.htm

More animal species under threat of extinction, new method shows

Currently approximately 600 species might be inaccurately assessed as non-threatened on the Red List of Threatened Species. More than a hundred others that couldn't be assessed before, also appear to be threatened. A new more efficient, systematic and comprehensive approach to assess the extinction risk of animals has shown this. from All Top News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/01/190117090458.htm

Proposed engineering method could help make buildings and bridges safer

Researchers discovered that the distance between dislocations in nanolayer interfaces of pearlite can determine how much the material can stretch or contract without breaking (ductility). The dislocations are disruptions in the regular arrangements of atoms in nanolayers. This discovery opens the possibility of engineering materials with higher ductility by simply manipulating the spacing between their dislocations and may improve the safety of structures such as buildings and bridges in earthquakes. from Top Technology News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/01/190117102359.htm

New light shed on intensely studied material

The organic polymer PEDOT is probably one of the world's most intensely studied materials. Despite this, researchers have now demonstrated that the material functions in a completely different manner than previously believed. The result has huge significance in many fields of application. from Top Technology News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/01/190117092601.htm

Molecules 'spin flip' from magnetic to non-magnetic forms dynamically

Solar cells, quantum computing and photodynamic cancer therapy. These all involve molecules switching between magnetic and nonmagnetic forms. Previously this process, called a "spin flip," was thought to occur slowly in most cases. Now, researchers have discovered spin flips happen in one half of one trillionth of a second, or half a picosecond in the course of a chemical reaction. To understand how fast it is -- watches count in seconds, sporting games are timed in 10ths of a second, and light travels just under 12 inches in one-billionth of a second. Spin flips are faster. from Top Technology News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/01/190116155538.htm
