Researchers at the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) have measured a property of the neutron more precisely than ever before. In the process, they found out…
A study led in part by physicists at the Indiana University Center for the Exploration of Energy and Matter could provide new insight into the…
Using the RIKEN Radioactive Isotope Beam Factory, physicists have revealed that the extra neutrons in a neutron-rich magnesium nucleus produce a neutron halo. Most stable…
In an attempt to better understand the sun and the space weather system that surrounds Earth, scientists are gathering information and looking at a unique…
Scientists are proposing the building of a hyper-accurate nuclear clock that would lose only one-tenth of a second over 14 billion years, the current age…
A newly proposed nuclear clock would be nearly 100 times more accurate than the best atomic clocks we have now, would be accurate to 19…
Researchers at U.S. Department of Energy’s Argonne and Thomas Jefferson National Laboratories have demonstrated that a quarter of the nucleons in a dense nucleus exceed…
The Crab Nebula (NGC 1952) is easily visible through small telescopes, which has allowed astronomers to observe its growth and evolution, ever since its birth…
Scientists at Oak Ridge National Laboratory are searching for the quantum state of matter called supersolidity. Now conducting research at ORNL’s Spallation Neutron Source, Hans…
