It Is Necessary to Resist

History tells that a few weeks after United States drops the atomic bombs in Hiroshima and Nagazaki, finishing the II World War, the Nobel Prize winner Linus Pauling starts to give speeches to different kinds of audiences, with the purpose of making the scientific issues related to the bomb understandable to the public. As an eminent scientist in the nuclear field, Pauling had been previously invited to join the Manhattan Project at their beginning, but he had refused. Pauling was convinced that the nascent atomic age imputed strong political responsibilities to the scientists, and he worked hard to stop the nuclear proliferation, which resulted in his indication to the Peace Nobel Prize several years after, in 1962. At that time Pauling declared: "I feel that, in addition to our professional activities, we should make our voices known with respect to the political significance of science."

Tunable Photochemical/Redox Properties of (Phenylthio)ncorannulenes: Application to a Photovoltaic Device

How to cite this article

The number of petals on a flower can be key to its taxonomy and properties, so too the number of thiophenyl groups on a corannulene imbue it with color, radiance and (electron) attractiveness. Each phenylthio derivative (n = 0-10) presents like a flower in a bouquet, assembling a veritable anthology of aromatics. Stemming from this chemical florilegium are principle additivity parameters useful for predicting the character of future corannulene-based inflorescence. Details are presented in the Article Tunable Photochemical/Redox Properties of (Phenylthio)ncorannulenes: Application to a Photovoltaic Device by Angela Steinauer, Anna M. Butterfield, Anthony Linden, Agustin Molina-Ontario, David C. Buck, Robert W. Cotta, Luis Echegoyen, Kim K. Baldridge, and Jay S. Siegel on page 1866.
