"We don't know the frequency, so we need to keep tuning and trying different ones, like searching for a good radio station ...

Particle-accelerator study focuses on the r-process thought to be responsible for forming elements heavier than iron ...

So Jarrott and his Focused Energy colleague Jacob Peterson decided to set off on their own, founding Hexium with an eye ...

Quarks are the reason protons have a positive charge. Each quark has a fraction of an electric charge. A proton has two up ...

Ryan Amberger is headed to Los Alamos National Laboratory, where he will spend the next year studying nuclear astrophysics — specifically, the process behind the creation of half of the elements ...

In this environment, Mumpower’s team suggest that energetic photons in a jet collide with protons to create a neutron and a pion. Since these neutrons are have no electrical charge, many of them could ...

Neutrinos are the most common particles in the universe. Not having an electric charge and being very light, they can move to almost everything, with trillions flowing through any of us any second.

In a star’s core, fusion takes terrific temperature and pressure that is provided by the crushing gravity of the star’s ...

CERN’s LHCb experiment confirms CP violation in baryons, marking a milestone in particle physics; Japan unveils the world’s ...

In the world of nuclear physics, protons often take the spotlight. But now, for the first time, the neutron has stepped into it. A recent experiment using the U.S. Department of Energy’s Jefferson Lab ...

Heaviest known elementary particles and their antimatter counterparts are detected after nuclear smash-ups at the Large Hadron Collider.

Researchers from the KATRIN (Karlsruhe Tritium Neutrino) experiment report the most precise measurement of the upper mass limit of the neutrino to date, establishing it as 0.45 electron volts (eV) – ...
