Beyond Deep Blue: A complex network approach to playing chess

If you play chess, you may have noticed that often we have to calculate the net pressure on certain pieces (i.e how many pieces are 'attacking' it and how many pieces are defending more...

Spectral extension in photosynthesis: molecular mechanism of photosynthesis driven by red-shifted chlorophylls

Novel pigments and new directions in photosynthesis: past, now and future. There are five different forms of chlorophylls, Chl a, Chl b, Chl c, Chl d and Chl f. Chlorophyll a i more...
