For the first time, physicists have developed a model that explains the origins of unusually stable magic nuclei based directly on the interactions between their protons and neutrons. Published in ...

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 ...

Jericho celebrates its 20th anniversary with a nuclear physics audit: the CBS drama got electromagnetic pulse right, confirmed by a 1962 US nuclear test. But fallout cleared in hours, not weeks. The ...

The time is nigh for nuclear clocks. In a first, scientists have used a tabletop laser to bump an atomic nucleus into a higher energy state. It’s a feat that sets scientists on a path toward creating ...

Researchers have designed and demonstrated an ultraviolet laser that removes a major bottleneck in the development of a nuclear clock. Whereas ordinary atomic clocks keep time using transitions of ...
