Internal combustion engines are everywhere, yet they are not a common sight. They power most cars and motorcycles by combusting a fossil fuel like petroleum (although these vehicles are slowly being ...

Ultrafast laser camera: a, the kerosene flame studied in this work; b, optical signals induced when nanoparticles such as soot or PAH molecules in the flame interact with the nanosecond laser-sheet; c ...

This module connects ideas across topics in a first semester introductory chemistry course to explore the impacts of combustion reactions. By motivating students to understand the relationship between ...
