In a groundbreaking study, scientists developed new ways to control atom collisions using optical tweezers, offering insights ...

When atoms collide, their exact structure—for example, the number of electrons they have or even the quantum spin of their ...

Physicists searching for “dark forces” unexpectedly discovered deformed atomic nuclei. When top research teams collaborate, ...

Scientists have now mapped the forces acting inside a proton, showing in unprecedented detail how quarks -- the tiny particles within -- respond when hit by high-energy photons. The international team ...

An international research collaboration has overturned the long-standing belief that the atomic nucleus of lead-208 is perfectly spherical. The discovery challenges fundamental assumptions about ...

Atomic nuclei exhibit multiple energy scales simultaneously—ranging from hundreds down to fractions of a megaelectronvolt. A new study demonstrates that these drastically different scales can be ...

We all know all these things about the Taj, but do you know that no plane – private or commercial – can fly above the ...

An international team led by physicists at Penn State and Columbia University has developed a novel approach to maintain ...
