Planetary scientists may have discovered why Venus has 100,000 times less water than Earth. Aurore Simonnet / Laboratory for ...

Today, the atmosphere of our neighbor planet Venus is as hot as a pizza oven and drier than the driest desert on Earth – but ...

Recent research has raised the tantalizing prospect that our Solar System, in which we thought we were alone, may be dotted ...

The team examined the phosphine ligand-induced structural transformations and the corresponding catalytic and optical performance regulation of metal nanoclusters.

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. In 2020, scientists detected a gas called phosphine in the atmosphere of an Earth-sized rocky planet. Knowing of no way that ...

But some scientists have proposed that life could exist in Venus' atmosphere, based largely on the detection of phosphine, a possible indicator of life. This is an example of what an aerial ...

Take, for instance, the 2020 announcement that scientists had found evidence of phosphine on Venus—and that, as far as they could tell, only life could produce that chemical on the searing ...

New research may have identified a culprit molecule that caused Venus, often described as Earth's twin, to lose its water and become an inhospitable hellscape.

Trace Gas Phosphine Points to Volcanic Activity on Venus, Scientists Say July 12, 2021 — Last autumn, researchers reported finding the gas phosphine in trace amounts in Venus' upper atmosphere ...

The formation of a phosphine oxide with its strong P=O bond is the driving force for the classical Wittig reaction, but is wasteful and can pose problems during purification. A new development ...

The results were published in CCS Chemistry. The modulation of electronic effects and spatial structure of phosphine ligands led to the design and synthesis of a novel porous organic cage (FPPOC).
