The nuclear age changed steel, and for decades we had to pay the price for it. The first tests of the atomic bomb were a milestone in many ways, and have left a mark in history and in the surface of ...

Surprisingly, exposure to a high background radiation might actually lead to clear beneficial health effects in humans, according to Ben-Gurion University of the Negev and Nuclear Research Center ...

The Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation is the afterglow of the Big Bang; one of the strongest lines of evidence we have that this event happened. UCLA's Dr. Ned Wright explains. "Ok, I'm Ned Wright ...

It seems so. Recent studies on the biological effects of radiation carried out under radiation levels from natural background to essentially zero radiation, demonstrate that the absence of radiation ...

Deep in the Earth, a series of experiments is revealing how life suffers when it’s deprived of background levels of radiation. In 1987, a group of researchers in France discovered something peculiar.

A: In the standard Big Bang model, the universe evolved from a state in which it was extremely hot, dense, and opaque, and it has been expanding (and cooling) ever since. In the cosmos’ early history, ...

Doing calculations with a quantum computer is a race against time, thanks to the fragility of the quantum states at their heart. And new research suggests we may soon hit a wall in how long we can ...

Members of a high school science club gather in the school's chemistry lab for a lunchtime meeting to learn about local, natural sources of radiation as a nearby wall-mounted sensor box with glowing ...

Astronomers have developed a new technique to detect the cosmic ultraviolet background radiation that keeps the universe ionized and hot. Their findings provide clues as to why astronomers observe ...
