Determining the thermochemical properties of hydrocarbon molecules is important to understand carbon reservoirs and fluxes in the Earth. A computer modeling study published in the journal Proceedings ...

A research team including colleagues at UC Davis, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory and Shell Projects & Technology is offering a new computational study published in the Proceedings of the ...

How did complex hydrocarbons—the chemical building blocks of life—form in space? That was the question asked by team of researchers investigating the creation of pyrene, a hydrocarbon found in ...

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. claims “petroleum-based chemicals” are inherently poisonous, but that’s chemically illiterate: ...

Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent six days a week. Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. A new study demonstrates how high hydrocarbons could be formed ...

A mature colony of the red harvester ant, a seed-eating desert species, consists of a single queen and 10,000–12,000 workers. We focused on two task groups: foragers, who collect food; and patrollers, ...

We talk increasingly about “critical minerals,” sources for elements spanning the periodic table that are vital, considered to be strategically important, and for which substitutes are very difficult ...

Most of the progress in human culture has required the exploitation of energy resources. About 100 years ago, the major source of energy shifted from recent solar to fossil hydrocarbons, including ...

Next Bridge Hydrocarbons, Inc. ("Next Bridge," "our," "we," or the "Company"), an oil and natural gas exploration and production company with interests in Texas, Louisiana, and Oklahoma today ...

A new computational study reveals how hydrocarbons may be formed from methane in deep Earth at extreme pressures and temperatures. The thermodynamic and kinetic properties of hydrocarbons at high ...
