Physicists have discovered a surprising new “Island of Inversion” in a place no one expected: among nuclei where the number ...

The Bohr Model of Hydrogen revolutionized our understanding of atomic structure and behavior. In this video, we simplify the calculations of force and velocity within the hydrogen atom using Bohr’s ...

Scientists at the Department of Energy's Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) have developed a new way to determine atomic structures from nanocrystals previously considered unusable, ...

Researchers reveal why trace amounts of alloy added to some catalysts keep them performing better over time. The study suggests models that could boost manufacturing.

Engineers have discovered an unexpected link between two very different realms of physics: the behavior of electrons in ...

When Richard Feynman first conceived of quantum computers in the 1980s, he believed they should primarily investigate quantum phenomena. So that’s what a group of chemists did: they used quantum ...

Inside each of your cells lies a nucleus, its master command center. Protected inside each nucleus are your chromosomes, ...

Every second, hundreds to thousands of molecules move through thousands of nuclear pores in each of your cells. A new high-definition view reveals the machine in action.

Everything depends on what people and their government do,” Somerville writes, not once, not twice, but (if I count correctly) seven times.

The original story “ Physicists build a quantum Newton’s cradle where energy flows without resistance ” is published in The ...

Virtual apertures let researchers isolate and solve atomic structures from individual nanocrystals embedded in dense clusters, providing valuable new data for energy and pharmaceutical applications.
