Researchers have demonstrated the existence of a tetraneutron, a subatomic structure once thought unlikely to exist. Iowa State University researchers have helped demonstrate the existence of a ...

This lesson utilizes an adaptation of the board game Subatomic: An Atom Building Game to help students learn about the different parts that make up an atom. During their turn, players can choose to ...

A shower of subatomic particles has revealed the outlines of an empty cavity inside the Great Pyramid at Giza in Egypt — the first discovery of a new internal structure in almost two centuries.

Powerful supercomputer simulations of high-energy collisions between atomic cores provide new insights about the complex structure of a superhot fluid called the quark-gluon plasma. At its start, the ...

Protons are particles that exist in the nucleus of all atoms, with their number defining the elements themselves. Protons, however, are not fundamental particles. Rather, they are composite particles ...

In Bernard Malamud’s The Natural, Iris (played in the movie version by Glenn Close) tells Roy Hobbs that we all have two lives, “the life we learn with and the life we live with after that.” Murray ...

(ScienceX)—It was another good week for physics, as a team at the University of Houston induced superconductivity in non-superconducting materials—demonstrating that an idea proposed several decades ...

High-density lipoprotein (HDL) particles are cholesterol and lipid transport containers. Mature HDL particles destined for the liver develop through the formation of intermediate discoidal HDL ...

The minuscule and the immense can reveal quite a bit about each other. In particle physics, scientists study the properties of the smallest bits of matter and how they interact. Another branch of ...

Senior Lecturer in Particle Physics Informatics, Brunel University of London It is often claimed that the Ancient Greeks were the first to identify objects that have no size, yet are able to build up ...
