One of the great successes of 20th-century physics was the quantum mechanical description of solids. This allowed scientists ...
Some atomic nuclei are not shaped like rugby balls, as a longstanding theory suggests, but are instead somewhat flattened, like almonds, according to a new study by Japanese scientists. A team from ...
Scientists have uncovered an unexpected breakdown of nuclear order in a remarkably symmetric atom, challenging long-standing ...
Active galactic nuclei, energetic and luminous regions powered by an accreting supermassive black hole at the center of some galaxies, can launch a jet that drives a gas outflow, shaping star ...
Powered by supermassive black holes swallowing matter in the centers of galaxies, active galactic nuclei are the most powerful compact steady sources of energy in the universe. The brightest active ...

White mold fungi split their genome across several nuclei, with implications for future gene-editing
Genomes contain the complete library of information required to build and maintain a living organism—the figurative blueprints of life. In eukaryotes, genomes are stored in the nuclei, where they are ...
Scientists have precisely measured two unstable atomic nuclei that play a crucial role in explosive X-ray bursts on neutron ...
Plans to deliver the first-ever precision measurements of some of the rarest and most unstable atomic nuclei could reshape our understanding of ...
