Strongly correlated systems are systems made of particles that strongly interact with one another, to such an extent that their individual behavior depends on the behavior of all other particles in the system. In states that ...
An international team with researchers from the University of Bayreuth presents a potentially groundbreaking discovery for nitrogen chemistry in Nature Chemistry: For the first time, a compound containing aromatic rings of ...
