Recent advancements at the ATLAS user facility are enhancing operations and efficiency to help unlock new insights into the universe’s fundamental forces. Here, scientists explore our fundamental ...

Lund University has constructed a compact accelerator-driven neutron source based on a repurposed 3 MV Pelletron accelerator ...

For most stars, neutron stars and black holes are their final resting places. When a supergiant star runs out of fuel, it expands and then rapidly collapses on itself. This act creates a neutron ...

Enhanced nuclear application strategies "By better understanding the behavior of nuclei in these conditions, we can enhance our approaches to nuclear energy production and radiation therapy," stated J ...

Small modular reactors and their potential applications were the focus of a conference organised by MEP Dimitris Tsiodras. A ...

The Florida State University low-energy nuclear physics lab has received new funding from the National Science Foundation to improve the investigation of atomic nuclei and to perform experiments ...

Our account of the strong nuclear force is full of imaginative terms. Six flavors of quarks have color charges of red, green and blue, which dictate how they bind to form particles like protons and ...

A new theoretical analysis connects the results of high-energy particle experiments at the Large Hadron Collider with three-proton correlations inside nuclei. How triplets of protons and neutrons ...

Solving the nuclear many-body problem is a key challenge in nuclear physics – it deals with understanding the behavior of the protons and neutrons (called nucleons) inside atomic nuclei. These ...

Physics is the study of the underlying laws and mechanisms explaining how the universe works. Most of what we do in daily life is based on a principle or law of physics—dealing with forces, motion, ...
