A group of researchers from the Institute of Experimental Physics at Graz University of Technology (TU Graz), under the direction of Markus Koch, have, for the first time, monitored in real time the processes that led to the formation of a cluster from the combination of individual atoms. The study was published in Communications Chemistry. The scientists accomplished this by isolating magnesium atoms using superfluid helium and initiating the production process with a laser pulse.

Reviewed by Lexie CornerEnvironmental and chemical stresses negatively affect plant growth, metabolism, and yield by disrupting physiological and biochemical processes. Traditional detection methods rely on visual inspection and laboratory analyses. These approaches are time-consuming, labor-intensive, and typically detect stress only after significant damage has occurred. As a result, they are not well-suited for large-scale or real-time monitoring.
