An international research team led by the Paul Scherrer Institute PSI has measured the radius of the nucleus of muonic helium-3 with unprecedented precision. The results are an important stress test ...

Image of the emission of 4 neutrons (blue spheres) from the exotic nucleus oxygen-28, which consists of 8 protons (red spheres) and 20 neutrons. According to the traditional model, the nucleons inside ...

Technical University of Braunschweig, and the University of Delaware achieved new insight into the inner structure of the ...

The technique in this article explores applied radio frequency fields B 1 expressed and employed as nutation frequencies for nucleus i,ƒ (1,i) =1/2π |1/2 γ i B r,i |, vital constraints in solid-state ...

MIT researchers have devised a new molecular technique that lets electrons probe inside atomic nuclei, replacing massive particle accelerators with a tabletop setup. By studying radium monofluoride, ...

A team of researchers from GSI/FAIR, Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz and the Helmholtz Institute Mainz has succeeded in exploring the limits of the so-called island of stability within the ...

Different atoms and ions possess characteristic energy levels. Like a fingerprint, they are unique for each species. Among ...
