Humanity has been creating new materials since the age of bronze (which does not occur naturally) and since the breakthrough ...

Green hydrogen from water splitting has emerged as a critical energy vector with the potential to spearhead the global ...

Imagine building a Lego tower with perfectly aligned blocks. Each block represents an atom in a tiny crystal, known as a ...

University of Queensland scientists have cracked a long-standing puzzle in nuclear physics, showing that nuclear polarization ...

Artistic representation of an artificial atom (shown as an atomic structure) implemented in a superconducting circuit interacting with its mirror image created by a short circuit. This configuration ...

“They can orbit the nucleus just like electrons ... influences the hyperfine structure, which refers to the subtle energy level splittings within the atom. “Our work has shown that the ...

Everyone at that time imagined the atom as a "plum pudding." That is, it was roughly the same consistency throughout, with negatively-charged electrons scattered about in it like raisins in a pudding.

IN a letter to NATURE of November 25 last Dr. Norman Campbell discusses the problem of the possible consistency of the assumptions about the motion and arrangement of electrons in the atom ...

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

The nucleus is very small compared to the atom as a whole: as electrons are even smaller, most of an atom is empty space the diameter of a nucleus can be 100,000 times less than the diameter of an ...
