An atom is so small that a single drop of water contains more than a billion atoms. Although tiny, atoms are mostly empty space. The simplified model of the atom is that of a cloud of negative ...

Astronomers have used near-infrared light to explore the extreme forces behind the eruption of LMC68, a recurrent nova in the Large Magellanic Cloud.

JILA researchers are pioneering a nuclear clock using thorium-229, which offers unprecedented stability compared to atomic ...

X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) was used to analyze the oxidation state of the elements present in the material. XPS measurements were performed by using a Kratos Analytical AXIS Supra ...

High-pressure experiments reveal that calcium solubility in bridgmanite ... serving as reservoirs for incompatible elements and offering a potential explanation for large low shear-wave velocity ...

This is the second part of a three-part series written by Carolyn Krause. Many of the elements were synthesized using an Oak ...
