Why do some elements decay in minutes, while others last billions of years? Certain "magic numbers" of nuclear particles may ...
Maria Goeppert Mayer was a physicist at Argonne who developed the nuclear shell model theory, a pivotal discovery that won her a Nobel Prize in 1963. This year marks the 75 th anniversary of the ...
Peter Bender, Assistant Professor, Department of Physics and Applied Physics, University of Massachusetts Lowell will give a talk on “Seeing the Invisible: High-Resolution γ-Ray Spectroscopy of Rare ...
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 ...
The word magic is not often used in the context of science. But in the early 1930s, scientists discovered that some atomic ...
Ars Technica has been separating the signal from the noise for over 25 years. With our unique combination of technical savvy and wide-ranging interest in the technological arts and sciences, Ars is ...
Where does the periodic table of chemical elements end and which processes lead to the existence of heavy elements? Researchers report on experiments to come closer to an answer. They gained insight ...
Where does the periodic table of chemical elements end and which processes lead to the existence of heavy elements? An international research team reports on experiments performed at the GSI/FAIR ...
The word magic is not often used in the context of science. But in the early 1930s, scientists discovered that some atomic nuclei—the center part of atoms, which make up all matter—were more stable ...
