When electrons are cooled down, their energy reduces and they arrange in a stable-grid-like structure due to their mutual ...

Fermilab engineers are developing innovative solutions to build durable particle detector targets for neutrino experiments.

Scientists at Brookhaven National Laboratory have used supercomputer simulations to predict electric charge distributions in ...

For the first time, two dark matter experiments have detected a neutrino fog, a dense cloud of neutrinos. This discovery is ...

Nuclear fission has powered our world and medical advancements for decades. What exactly happens when an atom's nucleus splits into two parts?

Mitochondria divide to share the load when nutrients are scarce — plus, how smashing atomic nuclei together helps identify their shapes.

An international team led by scientists of GSI/FAIR in Darmstadt, Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz and the Helmholtz Institute Mainz, succeeded in determining the chemical properties of the ...

The nucleus of the Xenon atom can assume different shapes depending on the balance of internal forces at play. As two Xenon atoms collide in the CERN experiment, extremely hot conditions are created ...

Fine tuning an experimental setup improved a detector's sensitivity to neutrinos and perhaps eventually dark matter—two ...

With advancements in imaging technology, the first successful dark matter detector might turn out to be an ancient rock. The visible universe — every potato, gas giant, steamy romance novel, black ...

Medical imaging is no longer in Kansas, Toto, as a team led by Penn State researchers brings traditional black and white ...
