Putting a positive spin on the Buckyball C60: Its potential for high level ionization and as the origin for some of the mysterious UIE bands seen in the universe - Science Daily

Researchers have identified highly ionized species of the famous soccer ball-shaped 'Buckminsterfullerene' C60 molecule as plausible carriers of at least some of the most prominent and enigmatic Unidentified Infrared Emission (UIE) bands that have challenged …

Is there now at long last some plausible theoretical basis for the molecular origins and carriers of at least some of the most prominent so-called 'UIE' (Unidentified Infrared Emission) bands that ha… [+3605 chars]
