Yesterday I had lunch with Jeff Martin of the University of Winnipeg, who is a member of an international team that aims to measure the electric dipole moment (EDM) of the neutron at TRIUMF in ...

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. I write about physics, science, academia, and pop culture. Most of the coverage of this adopts the framing of talking about this ...

Organic compounds exhibit a rich interplay between their electronic structure and light-matter interactions, a relationship that is fundamentally influenced by their dipole moments. The dipole moment, ...

Measuring zero: scientists have lowered the previous upper limit of the neutron’s electric dipole moment by 40%. (Courtesy: IOP Publishing) For more than 60 years, physicists have been searching for a ...

THIS reprint contains the account of the proceedings of the General Discussion held in April (see NATURE, 134, 802, May 26, 1934) together with an appendix consisting of a table of values of dipole ...

The conversion and utilization of solar energy for chemical fuel production and environmental remediation through artificial photocatalysis have been recognized to be an ideal route to address the ...
