Nuclear physicists used a little magic in their latest experiment conducted at the U.S. Department of Energy's Thomas ...

Researchers have found that titanium-48 changes from a shell model structure to an alpha-cluster structure depending on the distance from the center of the nucleus. The results upend the conventional ...

The study of nuclear structure and spectroscopy of excited states centres on elucidating how protons and neutrons arrange within the atomic nucleus and how these arrangements manifest in energy ...

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 world around us is made up of particles invisible to the naked eye, but physicists continue to gain insights into this mysterious realm. Findings published in Physical Review C by Osaka ...

Scientists have developed a theory to experimentally determine differences in nuclear structure. Using this method to assess carbon and oxygen nuclei revealed that they contain more components in ...
