The researchers note that these findings can open the door for further exploration of orbital covalency effects in molecular compounds, especially in solid-state chemical transformations.

The U.S. Space Force is funding the development of a new "Orbital Carrier" spacecraft that can deploy multiple satellites when needed. The Orbital Carrier is being designed by Seattle-based ...

In this work we present the use of qualitative molecular orbital energy-level diagrams built from simple group theory principles of symmetry. However, differently from the articles cited above, our ...

It can be regarded as the electromagnetic analog of molecular orbital theory. Although being an approximate method, the solution of the eigenvalue problem for different configurations gives valued ...
