A carefully engineered gold catalyst has just pushed green chemistry into new territory, setting a performance benchmark that had resisted improvement for a decade. By pairing tiny deposits of gold ...

Gold standard science (GSS). It's a simple idea: Conduct the best, unbiased scientific research possible. However, as with many simple ideas, GSS has been co-opted by MAHA as yet another tool to ...

Scientists at SLAC accidentally created solid binary gold hydride while studying diamond formation under extreme conditions, revealing exotic chemistry, planetary insights, and a new way to study ...

I read with considerable interest the editorial “ ‘No Excuses’ for the Future of Green Chemistry” (C&EN, June 2/9, 2025, page 2) and the first installment of the new column on green chemistry, “The ...

Trace chloride alters gold surface chemistry by forming a short-lived covalent layer of chloride ions on gold atoms. (Nanowerk News) Cambridge researchers have uncovered a hidden layer of chemistry on ...

Politics and science have combined to wipe $225 an ounce off the price of gold in three weeks with worse to come if peace takes hold in war zones and if an experiment in man-made gold moves out of its ...
