The nuclear structure of titanium-48 changes from a shell model structure to an α-cluster structure based on the distance from the center of the nucleus. The world around us is made up of particles ...

The centrality dependence of mean multiplicity ratios from Optical Glauber simulations with various contribution of hard processes (x), and from Optical Trento simulations with various deposition ...

An international team of researchers has systematically measured the β-decay half-lives of 40 nuclei near calcium-54, ...

Scientists have demonstrated a new way to use high-energy particle smashups at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC)—a U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Science user facility for nuclear ...

Materials scientists can learn a lot about a sample material by shooting lasers at it. With nonlinear optical microscopy—a specialized imaging technique that looks for a change in the color of intense ...

Asteroid impacts with global consequences are vastly rarer, especially compared to the frequency with which they appear in ...
