As it glows in the dark, is dangerously flammable in the air above 30 degrees, and is a deadly poison. Red phosphorus however has none of these fascinating properties. So where did it all begin?

Phosphorus is a necessary nutrient required for all life. However, it is only found in limited quantities in nature. In a new ...

In µSR spectroscopy, a unique particle called muonium (Mu) is formed when a muon captures an electron. This muonium reacts with the phosphorus compound, creating a highly reactive radical at the ...

Muon spin rotation (µSR) spectroscopy is a powerful technique that helps to study the behavior of materials at the atomic ...
