High energy density (HED) physics has critical applications in areas such as inertial confinement fusion and the stewardship of the nation’s nuclear weapons stockpile. Congress has requested that the ...
A collaborative research team from the Institute of Solid State Physics, the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science of the ...
Researchers have applied physics theory and calculations to predict the presence of two new phenomena -- interspecies radiative transition (IRT) and the breakdown of the dipole selection rule -- in ...
Physicists have heated gold to over 19,000 Kelvin, more than 14 times its melting point, without melting it, smashing the long-standing “entropy catastrophe” limit. Using an ultra-fast laser pulse at ...
