Nuclear structure physics aims to describe nuclei as collections of neutrons and protons. Nuclear structure is the traditional core of nuclear science, and it has been able to describe a broad range ...

A research team at the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) is the first ever to observe a beta-delayed neutron emission from fluorine-25, a rare, unstable nuclide. Using the FRIB Decay Station ...

Plans to deliver the first-ever precision measurements of some of the rarest and most unstable atomic nuclei could reshape our understanding of nuclear structure and how chemical elements are formed ...

A research collaboration between the University of Tennessee, Knoxville and the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams recently ran an experiment that sheds light on the forces holding together atomic nuclei ...

Radioactive decay is a fundamental process in nature by which an unstable atomic nucleus loses energy by radiation. Studying nuclear decay modes is crucial for understanding properties of atomic ...

Lead isotope analysis has emerged as a critical tool in the study of Bronze Age metallurgy, enabling researchers to decipher the provenance and circulation of metal resources used in ancient societies ...
