Catching intramolecular vibrational redistribution in real time (opens in new tab)

Molecules are never truly still. Even in apparently stable matter, atoms vibrate continuously, stretching and bending the chemical bonds that hold them together. These vibrations are not random noise: they determine how molecules absorb light, exchange energy, and undergo chemical reactions. One of the central challenges in chemistry is learning how to direct energy into […] The post appeared first on .
