Lead's bizarre response to electrons forces physicists to rethink nuclear models
When scientists fire beams of electrons at atomic nuclei, the resulting scattering patterns usually ...
New result with the A1 spectrometers at the MAMI accelerator reveals unexpected behaviour in heavy nuclei and opens a path ...
AMES, Iowa – It won’t be long before aluminum parts manufactured in Ames are part of a $28 million upgrade to a nuclear physics experiment at a national laboratory in New York. Veronica Canoa Roman, ...
Target preparation techniques are fundamental to nuclear physics experiments as they provide the essential interface where high-energy reactions occur. Researchers employ a range of fabrication ...
A Los Alamos collaboration has replicated an important but largely forgotten physics experiment: the first deuterium-tritium (DT) fusion observation. As described in the article published in Physical ...
The federal government’s Nuclear Science Advisory Committee (NSAC), which provides official advice to the U.S. Department of Energy and the National Science Foundation, has approved a long-range plan ...
Whether it’s powering a flying DeLorean or helping us break free from our dependence on fossil fuels, the concept of nuclear fusion has long seemed futuristic and unattainable. Now, this future is ...
The results of the Chi-Nu physics experiment at Los Alamos National Laboratory have contributed essential, never-before-observed data for enhancing nuclear security applications, understanding ...
A new measurement of the strong nuclear force, which binds protons and neutrons together, confirms previous hints of an uncomfortable truth: We still don’t have a solid theoretical grasp of even the ...
