Precise measurements of unstable ruthenium nuclei match predictions made by nuclear models
Scientists in the United States have made an extremely precise measurements of unstable ruthenium ...
A novel apparatus at the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory has made extremely precise ...
As well as being useful for creating an optical ion clock, this multi-ion capability could also be exploited to create quantum-computing architectures based on multiple trapped ions. And because the ...
When scientists fire beams of electrons at atomic nuclei, the resulting scattering patterns usually behave exactly as theory predicts. It’s one of the great strengths of modern nuclear physics. This ...
Mirror magic: The "cores" of the exotic nuclei oxygen-22 and silicon-22 both resemble that of oxygen-16, with eight protons and eight neutrons. The neutron-rich oxygen isotope contains an additional ...
Nuclear and plasma physics form complementary pillars in our understanding of the fundamental forces and states of matter. Nuclear physics investigates the structure, dynamics and interactions of ...
The LCLS-II X-ray laser is unprecedentedly bright, and will make it possible to record exactly what atoms and molecules do during photosynthesis and other chemical reactions ...
