Water is essential for life, but the hydrogen bond—a critical interaction that brings H2O molecules together—remains complex and not fully understood. Hydrogen bonds occur when hydrogen and oxygen atoms in water molecules interact, sharing an electronic charge. This charge-sharing creates a 3D network of hydrogen bonds that gives liquid water unique properties. However, theoretical simulations

Early galaxies are dominated by bright clumps, which are larger and more massive than in the local Universe. The star formation activity is strongly influenced and can be even halted by a number of processes, some of which are directly related to the environment in which the galaxy resides.
