The results may offer insight into the quark-gluon plasma—the hot mix of fundamental nuclear-matter building blocks that filled the early universe.
Photon-deuteron collisions offer insight into the gluons that bind the building blocks of matter—and what it takes to break protons and neutrons apart.
The energy of a key resonance in sodium destruction is found, affecting our understanding of globular cluster evolution.
A key reaction in the slow neutron-capture process that forms elements occurs less frequently than previously thought.
Scientists explore the origin of Aluminum-26 in stars with a nuclear reaction that exploits the fact that neutrons and protons are stunningly similar.
A new machine learning system diagnoses particle accelerator component issues in real-time.
Scientists start studying the structure of exotic hadrons by looking how they interact with nearby particles.
A result 20 years in the making: Most precise measurement yet of the lifetime of the charge-neutral pion that keeps protons and neutrons together.
Fluctuations in data from collisions of gold nuclei hint at a possible ‘critical point’ in how nuclei melt.
The types of ancient stellar explosions that gave rise to meteoric presolar grains can now be identified thanks to observations of gamma rays emitted by the argon-34 isotope.
