Combining synthesis, characterization, and theory confirmed the exotic properties and structure of a new intrinsic ferromagnetic topological material.

A weak proton emission following beta decay constrains the formation of elements in stellar nova explosions and determines their peak temperature.

Scientists develop a new learning method that incorporates quantum chemistry descriptions with conventional machine learning to predict the properties of biochemical molecules.

The Facility for Rare Isotope Beams has demonstrated an innovative liquid-lithium charge stripper to accelerate unprecedentedly high-power heavy-ion beams.

Using Earth-based particle accelerators, scientists measure the reactions that take place in stars to produce carbon.

Neutrons reveal remarkable atomic behavior in thermoelectric materials for more efficient conversion of heat into electricity.

The results may offer insight into the quark-gluon plasma—the hot mix of fundamental nuclear-matter building blocks that filled the early universe.
