Dear Editor and the C&EN community: I was visiting your cne.acs.org pages recently and was encouraged to sign up for “The week’s most essential chemistry news, distilled to your inbox“. So I have been receiving emails weekly it seems. Today I clicked on something interesting. only to be challenged with “You have hit your article

At https://www.emf-corp.com/optical-materials/optical-material-infrared-optics/ please use the empty space to extend to 1E15 meters to cover low fruquency electromagnetic and gravitational wavelenghts. In frequency units 1 nanoHertz has a wavelength of 2.99792458E17 meters or 1E9 Light Seconds. I am looking for LWIR and longer wavelength lens materials. Since I work a lot with gravitational sensors, it always

Donnie Mason, I an encouraged that some of the reactions are making sense and I am getting decent structures and reaction predictions. I hope you can add nuclear magnetic moments. I just posted a note online with a summary of some of it. That is at Magnetic binding – atomic structures, isotope reaction energies, atomic

FermiLab: How do magnets work? at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s7ndBIL402Q When two electrons or two protons are compressed together, the 1/r^3 magnetic energy (positive when magnetic dipoles attract) and the 1/r Coulomb energy (negative when the electric charges repel) can reach a minimum when they are at nuclear distances. Two electrons (Cooper pairs) or two protons (occurs inside

My daughter and I were talking about plant DNA. A couple of years ago I bought her a full genome test for $300 just to see what her full genome looked like. I could not make sense of the plant genome testing industry and services. If you have a couple of minutes can you point

Too Much Fab And Test Data, Low Utilization by Anne Meixner at https://semiengineering.com/too-much-fab-and-test-data-low-utilization/ Anne, I am preparing for a seminar today (22 Feb 2024) titled, “Standardizing the Semiconductor Manufacturing Backend”. When I was reading the background on the presenters, this article of yours, “Too much fame and test data, low utilization” was a good resource.
