[ad_1] The Science Newswise — Fixed numbers of protons and neutrons – the building blocks of nuclei – can rearrange themselves within a single nucleus. The products of this reshuffling include electromagnetic...
[ad_1] The Science Newswise — The element carbon is critical to organic chemistry and life as we know it. The physics of its most common isotope, carbon-12,...
[ad_1] Newswise — One of the annoying side effects of being absorbed in a gripping novel is that the cup of tea on the table becomes...
[ad_1] Newswise — Quantum materials hold the key to a future of lightning-speed, energy-efficient information systems. The problem with tapping their transformative potential is that, in...
[ad_1] Newswise — The Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory, a bastion of nuclear physics research for the past 80 years, is poised to strengthen...
[ad_1] BYLINE: Matt Davenport Images Highlights: The U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science, or DOE-SC, is investing in machine learning, a type of artificial intelligence,...
[ad_1] The Science Not all of the material around us is stable. Some materials may undergo radioactive decay to form more stable isotopes. Scientists have now observed a new...
[ad_1] The Science Scientists can use powerful colliders to smash atomic nuclei together to create a quark-gluon plasma (QGP). This “soup” of quarks and gluons, some of the fundamental building...
[ad_1] Newswise — By directly measuring Relative Stopping Power (RSP) with ions, a pixel sensor based named “Hi’CT” project with multi-layer structure reduces the risk of...
[ad_1] The Science What scientists call the “nuclear weak distribution” describes the distribution of “active” protons in a nucleus. These are protons that are eligible to transition into neutrons through what...
[ad_1] Newswise — Salt isn’t just for popcorn anymore. In fact, molten salt has caught the eye of the nuclear industry as an ideal working fluid...
[ad_1] The Science The building blocks of atomic nuclei are protons and neutrons, which are themselves made of even more fundamental particles: quarks and gluons. These particles interact via the “strong” force,...
[ad_1] The Science Outside atomic nuclei, neutrons are unstable particles, with a lifetime of about fifteen minutes. The neutron disintegrates due to the weak nuclear force,...
[ad_1] Newswise — A crowd gathers around a black wooden box that resembles a short refrigerator, waiting for the motion of a pair of robotic arms...
[ad_1] The Science Inside the proton are elementary particles called quarks. Quarks and protons have an intrinsic angular momentum called spin. Spin can point in different...
[ad_1] The Science There is so much that we do not yet know about neutrinos. Neutrinos are very light, chargeless, and elusive particles that are involved in a...
[ad_1] Newswise — The demand for renewable energy is continuously growing worldwide. Arif Efendi previously of Doyen Sports notes that the latest efforts in renewables will...
[ad_1] The Science Nuclear physicists collide protons with heavier ions (atomic nuclei) to explore the fundamental constituents that make up those ions. By tracking particles that stream out...
[ad_1] Newswise — A new simulation approach named eTLE aims to improve the precision of a primary tool for estimating neutron behaviours in 3D space. This...
[ad_1] Newswise — Balendra Sutharshan has been named chief operating officer for Oak Ridge National Laboratory. He will begin serving as ORNL’s deputy for operations and...
