After winning a Breakthrough Prize, the world’s most lucrative science award, theoretical physicist David Gross is using the ...

Fulfilling the dream of medieval alchemists, physicists have observed the transmutation of lead into gold—through nuclear physics at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the world's most powerful particle ...

When scientists fire beams of electrons at atomic nuclei, the resulting scattering patterns usually behave exactly as theory predicts. It’s one of the great strengths of modern nuclear physics. This ...

Researchers have combined theory and experiments to show that nuclear polarization does not limit studies of muonic atoms, clearing the way for new nuclear physics experiments. University of ...

During a deeply inelastic collision with a proton, a relativistic electron (highlighted in blue) can emit a high-energy photon (purple here) that penetrates interior of the proton, where it ‘sees’ ...

New benchmark for theoretical modelling The charge radii obtained from muonic helium-3 and helium-4 serve as important reference values for modern ab initio theories — that is, physical models that ...

TURIN, Italy, April 16, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- newcleo, in partnership with Politecnico di Torino, is proud to announce ...

In the early decades of the 20th century, few lives followed a trajectory as unusual as that of Swami Jnanananda. Born in ...

Nuclear decay and fusion dynamics constitute central pillars in modern nuclear physics, with implications ranging from energy production and astrophysical phenomena to the synthesis of novel elements.

A Los Alamos collaboration has replicated an important but largely forgotten physics experiment: the first deuterium-tritium (DT) fusion observation. As described in the article published in Physical ...
