Earth’s core could contain helium from the early solar system. The noble gas tucks into gaps in iron crystals under high pressure and temperature.

The best time of day to take iron supplements depends on the person and their dosing regimen, but the experts agree that the ...

Iron can form compounds with helium at pressures as low as 5GPa – about 50,000 atmospheres – researchers in Japan report.

The discovery that inert helium can form bonds with iron may reshape our understanding of Earth’s history. Researchers from ...

"We concluded that iron oxides are 'catalytic traps' because they catalyze the reaction to remove phosphate from organic ...

In 2022, the Webb telescope detected unequivocal evidence of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere of a distant exoplanet called ...

Scientists have uncovered that iron oxides, previously thought to trap phosphorus, actually help convert it into a ...

The Fe3O4 series borrows the name from the chemical compound of black iron oxide, which presents itself in nature as the mineral magnetite. NMIXX uses it as a metaphor for their magnetic charm while ...

These results suggest that similar reactions between helium and iron may have occurred within Earth’s core shortly after its formation, trapping much of the primordial helium-3 in the material that ...

The diamond anvil crushed iron and helium together under conditions mimicking those inside the Earth, to create a new compound. These compounds remained stable when pressures were reduced.
