✨ New insights added
The article on esterification now includes a FAQ block that explores why esters smell fruity, how the reaction works, and where these molecules appear in everyday life.
From bananas and strawberries to biodiesel and polymers, this reaction links chemistry to familiar experiences. 🍌🍓⚗️

A small reminder that even simple scents carry the quiet work of chemistry. ✨

📄 New publication: "New Insights into Early Islamic Glass from Jorjan by Archaeometric Investigation Using LIBS and SEM-EDXS"
This study presents the analysis of nineteen glass samples from Jorjan (northeastern Iran), dating to the Early Islamic period, using Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS) as a first approach. While LIBS allowed rapid screening of elemental patterns, its quantification is not yet fully mas (...)
AlphaFold Changed Science. After 5 Years, It’s Still Evolving
📄 New publication: "Characterizing the Technology and Structure of Celadon Wares from the City of Gour; An Archaeometrical Approach"
use of high-energy synchrotron rays in order to identify and characterize historical and cultural materials as accurately as possible, usually in a non-destructive manner and with very high accuracy, has become a suitable method to identify the elemental composition of archaeological mate (...)

So much of global #capitalism depends upon technology NOT advancing, but being kept stagnant and mired in obsolescence because that's necessary to protect massively entrenched industries who refuse to change their business models so long as they can be squeezed.
Hence I close with the extraordinary speculation that #physics and #chemistry are NOT in fact what we have been permitted to think they are, and strange anomalies are piling up in certain scientific domains (most especially in cosmology, which has been kept maximally speculative as a safety-valve for scientific heterodoxy) because knowledge of the physical sciences has fractured.
There's so much secrecy, I suggest, that there are substantial bodies of human beings whose concept of physical reality, as defined by their best understanding of science and empirical findings, is actually considerably different from that of the general population. They have seen things they do not want the world to know about.
