Deep inside what we perceive as solid matter, the landscape is anything but stationary. The interior of the building blocks of the atom's nucleus -- particles called hadrons that most of us would ...

Data collected by the SAMURAI spectrometer at RIKEN's RI Beam Factory (RIBF) in Japan recently led to the detection of a rare ...

Scientists at CERN have measured quantum entanglement in quarks at record energy levels.

Abstract: Nuclear science fundamentally explores the formation of protons and neutrons from elementary particles and the interactions between them. One successful model describing this is the nuclear ...

Scientists have measured the strange quantum phenomenon of entanglement in top quarks, the heaviest fundamental subatomic particles known. It’s the first detection of entanglement between pairs of ...

One of the most surprising predictions of physics is entanglement, a phenomenon where objects can be some distance apart but ...

Now, a hydrogen's nucleus is just this, a proton, but a deuterium's nucleus is a proton and a neutron, which weighs the same as a proton, but has no charge. So overall, a deuterium atom weighs ...

Most atoms are made from positively charged protons, neutral neutrons and negatively charged electrons. Positronium is an exotic atom composed of a single negative electron and a positively charged ...

A laser pulse (LFEX) with an intensity of ~1 × 10 19 W/cm 2 was focused on a 5-µm-thick deuterated polystyrene (CD) foil to accelerate protons and deuterons. The neutrons were generated using ...
