Federal facilities that offer neutron beams for U.S. industry play an outsized role in bringing new goods to market more quickly and cost-effectively, according to an analysis of neutron science's ...

A double blast of dying stars may be the first observed case of a long-hypothesized, never proven “superkilonova.” Although ...

Cram the Sun into the diameter of a city, then do the same to a second star, and now have them clash. When this happens in the cosmos, reverberations in the fabric of space-time carry throughout the ...

Neutron stars are covered with "mountains" only fractions of a millimeter tall, new research shows, meaning these bumps are hundreds of times smaller than previous estimates had suggested. Now, new ...

NASA's Hubble Telescope sees a flash of light 10 times brighter than expected... what was it? Perhaps the birth of a magnetar. Jackson Ryan was CNET's science editor, and a multiple award-winning one ...

The University of Delaware has been tapped to lead the development of a world-class neutron spin echo spectrometer for the United States. This scientific instrument will advance U.S. research on ...

Scientists from several institutions, including the University of Chicago, discovered a lemon-shaped planet with an ...

Neutrons have a huge amount of potential to advance science in various fields. To produce the free neutrons needed for scientific experimentation, a new facility is being constructed in Sweden. The ...

To solve a long-standing puzzle about how long a neutron can 'live' outside an atomic nucleus, physicists entertained a wild but testable theory positing the existence of a right-handed version of our ...

Scientists have created the first neutron 'Airy beam,' which has unusual capabilities that ordinary neutron beams do not. The achievement could enhance neutron-based techniques for investigating the ...
