Researchers have developed a new technique that predicts nuclear properties in record detail. The study revealed how the structure of a nucleus relates to the force that holds it together. This ...

High-precision laser spectroscopy measurements on the thorium-229 nucleus could reveal new physics, say TU Wien physicists ...

Nuclear structure and scattering theory form the core of our understanding of atomic nuclei, unraveling how protons and neutrons interact via the strong force and arrange themselves into complex ...

Scientists have developed a theory to experimentally determine differences in nuclear structure. Using this method to assess carbon and oxygen nuclei revealed that they contain more components in ...

Atomic nuclei exhibit a complex interplay of structure and dynamics that underpins much of nuclear physics. The arrangement of protons and neutrons into specific configurations gives rise to quantised ...

Atomic nuclei are often described as orderly systems. Certain numbers of protons or neutrons, called magic numbers, usually ...

For decades, nuclear physicists believed that “Islands of Inversion” — regions where the normal rules of nuclear structure ...
