I discuss examples of what Dr. Irving Langmuir, a Nobel prize winner in Chemistry, called "the science of things that aren't so." Some of his examples are reviewed and others from High Energy Physics are added. It is hoped that discussing these incidents

Two modified Zagreb indices for random structures
Random structure plays an important role in the composition of compounds, and topological index is an important index to measure indirectly the properties of compounds.

Dust cloud evolution in sub-stellar atmospheres via plasma deposition and plasma sputtering [PDF]
Context. In contemporary sub-stellar model atmospheres, dust growth occurs through neutral gas-phase surface chemistry. Recently, there has been a growing body of theoretical and observational evidence suggesting that ionisation processes can also occur.

Investigating the transformations of polyoxoanions using mass spectrometry and molecular dynamics [PDF]
The reactions of [γ-SiW10O36]8– represent one of the most important synthetic gateways into a vast array of polyoxotungstate chemistry. Herein, we set about exploring the transformation of the lacunary polyoxoanion [β2-SiW11O39]8– into [γ-SiW10O36]8 ...

Understanding oxygen evolution mechanisms by tracking charge flow at the atomic level
Summary: Current classifications of oxygen evolution catalysts are based on energy levels of the clean catalysts. It is generally asserted that a LOM-catalyst can only follow LOM chemistry in each electron transfer step and that there can be no mixing ...

Influence of atomic bonds on the properties of the laxative drug sodium picosulphate
In this work, the influence of the different S═O, S−O, N⋯H, O⋯H, Na⋯O bonds present in the structures of the powerful laxative drug, sodium picosulphate in gas and aqueous solution phases were studied combining the density functional theory (DFT ...

Influence of surface chemistry on the electronic properties of graphene related carbon materials
A theoretical study on the influence of organic functional groups on the electronic properties of graphene related carbon materials was carried out. Here we report, using density functional theory and tight-binding approach, that the best candidates for ...

Mapping the evolution of mitochondrial complex I through structural variation
Respiratory complex I (CI) is crucial for bioenergetic metabolism in many prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It is composed of a conserved set of core subunits and additional accessory subunits that vary depending on the organism. Here, we categorize CI subunits from available structures to map the evolution of CI across eukaryotes. Respiratory complex I (CI)
