For decades, nuclear physicists believed that "Islands of Inversion"—regions where the normal rules of nuclear structure suddenly break down—were found mostly in neutron-rich isotopes. In these ...

Why do some elements decay in minutes, while others last billions of years? Certain "magic numbers" of nuclear particles may make all the difference. When you purchase through links on our site, we ...

Researchers at CERN have made a great step forward in revealing how atomic nuclei behave after they mapped the edge of a mysterious ‘island of inversion’ where the standard rules of nuclear physics do ...

Team Trump has a growing Iranian problem. Tehran’s latest purported nuclear offer — a farcical proposal to pause uranium enrichment for a year in exchange for the release of Iranian frozen funds and ...

The local phonon density of states (DOS) at the Sn site in tin monoxide (SnO) is studied at pressures up to 8 GPa with Sn-119 nuclear resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (NRIXS) of synchrotron ...

Part of Operation Upshot-Knothole, was a 15-kiloton test fired from a 280-mm cannon on May 25, 1953 at the Nevada Proving Grounds. 72 years ago the U.S. Army carried out its first and only nuclear ...
