New research sheds light on the 3D structure of nucleon resonances. During the mid-20th century, scientists discovered that protons have the ability to resonate, akin…
Scientists from PSI and the University of Barcelona have managed to explain the strange behavior of microgels. Their experiments with neutron beams have stretched the…
Neutrons are subatomic particles, with a neutral charge and slightly more mass than protons, found in the nucleus of every atom except hydrogen. When not…
The University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign’s nuclear physics group is participating in the nEDM experiment at Oak Ridge National Laboratory, aiming to measure the neutron’s electric…
A novel technique for material analysis combines resonant X-ray diffraction and solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance. The researchers at Tokyo Tech have uncovered the previously unknown…
New findings from Jefferson Laboratory shed light on the process of forming strange matter from ordinary matter. Nuclear physicists have made a groundbreaking discovery through…
Scientists at Osaka University were part of a particle accelerator experiment that produced an exotic and highly unstable particle, and determined its mass. This could…
Physicists peer into mirror nuclei. The atomic nucleus is a busy place. Its protons and neutrons periodically collide and fly apart with high momentum before…
Theoretical physicist James Vary has been waiting for nuclear physics experiments to confirm the reality of a “tetraneutron” that he and his colleagues theorized, predicted,…
Time crystals were long believed to be impossible because their perpetual motion would seem to defy the laws of physics. However, using quantum physics scientists…
A new atomic nucleus 149-Lutetium, consisting of 71 protons and 78 neutrons, has been synthesized in an experiment performed in the Accelerator Laboratory of University…
Experiment exploring mirror nuclei opens the door to new details about the internal structures of protons and neutrons To understand more about the particles that…
Scientists develop a new way to take a census of carbon in the ground under our feet – a crucial tool for managing climate change…
The tetra-neutron – experiment finds evidence for a long-sought particle comprising four neutrons. While all atomic nuclei except hydrogen are composed of protons and neutrons,…
When we look into the night sky, we see the universe as it once was. We know that in the past the universe was once…
A 5-Sigma Standard Model Anomaly Is Possible One of the best chances for proving beyond-the-standard-model physics relies on something called the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) matrix. The…
Engineers have successfully transferred digitally encoded information wirelessly using nuclear radiation instead of conventional technology. Radio waves and mobile phone signals rely on electromagnetic radiation…
