Researchers have devised a new theoretical method for calculating the speediness of reactions whose rates depend strongly on pressure. In the past, such calculations have always needed at least a bit ...

Molecular reactant Ball-and-stick model of carbon monoxide. The rate at which the molecule reacts with helium ions can be controlled using microwaves. (Courtesy: Benjah-bmm27) Through new experiments, ...

The hydrothermal alteration of mantle rocks (referred to as serpentinization) occurs in submarine environments extending from mid-ocean ridges to subduction zones. Serpentinization affects the ...
