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 ...

When world-leading teams join forces, new findings are bound to be made. This is what happened when quantum physicists from ...

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

Together with new calculations of the structure of atomic nuclei, theoretical physicists from the Technical University of Darmstadt and Leibniz University Hannover were able to show that measurements ...

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 ...

The researchers used advanced cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) to determine the atomic structure of a packed collagen assembly that deviates from the traditionally accepted right-handed superhelical ...

A Russian drone attack badly damaged the confinement structure around the disused Chornobyl nuclear power plant intended to ...

Ukraine said a Russian drone crashed into the containment structure, starting a fire, but so far radiation levels have stayed ...

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