Though atomic nuclei are often depicted as static clusters of protons and neutrons (nucleons), the particles are actually bustling with movement. Thus, the nucleons carry a range of momenta. Sometimes ...

The pressure inside the particles that make up every atom in the universe could be greater than the pressure inside the densest stars, according to a new measurement. Scientists at Jefferson Lab in ...

Protons in neutron-rich nuclei have a higher average energy than previously thought, according to a new analysis of electron scattering data that was first collected in 2004. The research appears to ...

“This research helps reveal how nuclear matter behaves under extreme conditions, like those that existed just after the Big ...

A few days ago I wrote about how different measurements of the Hubble parameter gave results that didn't quite agree. It's not the only example of such an experimental disagreement. In fact, one of ...

Scientists have been studying protons for many years to determine how they function, and now the internal pressure of a proton has finally been calculated. For the first time ever, researchers have ...

CUDDALORE: The decision by a young Hindu couple, Mohan and Chitra, to name their newborn girl child Yunus as a sign of gratitude to the man who rescued them from their marooned house at Urappakkam, ...

IT is well known that the magnetic moment of the proton and the neutron cannot be explained by Dirac's relativistic wave equation. It was first suggested by Wick 1 that the surplus moment of the ...
