A crystal of a different color: One chemical forms two colors of crystals, sheds insight on agostic bonds important in industrial catalysis

Posted: 04 Aug 2013 05:11 AM PDT

Chemists have unexpectedly made two differently colored crystals -- one orange, one blue -- from one chemical in the same flask while studying a special kind of molecular connection called an agostic bond. The discovery provides industrial chemical reactions such as those that occur while making plastics and fuels.

Nasa's Hubble finds 'smoking gun' after gamma-ray burst

Posted: 04 Aug 2013 05:09 AM PDT

Probing the location of a recent short-duration gamma-ray burst in near-infrared light, astronomers using the Hubble Space Telescope found the fading fireball produced in the aftermath of the blast. The afterglow reveals for the first time a new kind of stellar blast called a kilonova.
