Credit: Pratyush Ghosh Scientists have discovered that electrons in solar materials can be launched across molecules almost as fast as nature allows, driven by tiny atomic vibrations. Scientists have found that electrons can be propelled across solar materials at nearly the fastest speed

Every few years, something strange drifts into our solar system. However, this object is not from the family of the Sun’s planets, asteroids, or comets. Instead, it comes from the vast darkness of space, traveling at tremendous velocities, carrying materials formed in a completely different planetary system. TIL Creatives I witness a colossal, icy asteroid

Three layers of a silver ion-doped polyheptazine imide polymeric network. In this example the metal ions are located between the layers, inducing lattice expansion and structural distortion. However, the polymeric backbone remains intact. Only the pore geometry changes. Credit: B.
