Nuclear isomers are crucial probes for studying the structure of nuclei. Unlike chemical isomers—which have the same chemical formula but different arrangements of atoms—nuclear isomers are nuclei ...

After a new upgrade, a neutrino observatory in Antarctica may identify dormant supermassive black holes within our galaxy.

A new three-volume study explores how quantum physics, gravitation and cosmology may be understood within a unified ...

Suburban Batavia, just 30 miles west of Chicago, used to be known as the windmill capital of the world. But eventually, ...

Deep canyons in the Andes are the perfect location to catch the most energetic particles in the universe. Carlos ...

Curiosity-driven research has long sparked technological transformations. A century ago, curiosity about atoms led to quantum mechanics, and ...

What governs the speed at which raindrops fall, sediment settles in river estuaries, and matter is ejected during a supernova? These questions circle around one, deceitfully simple factor: the rate at ...

Dr. Randolf Pohl from the Institute for Physics at Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (JGU), have successfully conducted experiments on hydrogen atoms which allow testing of the Standard Model of ...

Pushed down to a certain scale, the laws of physics seem to fall apart. Astrid Eichhorn, a leader in an area of study called asymptotic safety, thinks we just need to push a little further.
