Israel struck key Iranian nuclear sites to curb bomb development amid rapid uranium enrichment and rising tensions.

In the world of particle physics, where scientists unravel the mysteries of the universe, artificial intelligence (AI) and ...

These findings confirmed that atomic nuclei can decay by losing individual protons, not just clusters like alpha particles.

Massive stars create heavy elements from lighter ones through fusion, eventually forging an iron core over millions of years.

Estimates vary but it seems reasonable to suggest the typical EV can travel 200-400 miles on a single battery charge. But Car ...

A confidential IAEA report reveals Iran has significantly increased its stockpile of uranium enriched near weapons-grade ...

But are the nuclei of atoms really round? Intuitively this shape makes sense and physicists believed it aptly explained early measurements of nuclear properties. It wasn't until years later that the ...

Unlike nuclear fission, which relies on splitting an atom to create energy, fusion is where nuclei, such as hydrogen isotopes, are forced together to create a heavier helium nucleus ... Security and ...

Inside the bubble the laws of physics we take for granted would change.

But our modern knowledge tells us the basic difference between an atom ... nucleus just grazes past another, the electric field between them is huge. The rapidly changing field between the nuclei ...

The rapidly changing field between the nuclei makes them vibrate and occasionally spit out some protons. If one of them spits out exactly three protons, the lead nucleus has turned into gold. So if ...

He told me that protons – along with neutrons – form the nucleus in the middle of an atom. “Atoms make up all the stuff that we see,” Corbin said. “An atom has neutrons and protons in ...
