Inasmuch as the fast neutrons contribute the major part of the Rem dose rates in these areas, knowledge of the fast neutron levels is important for planning permissive entry to target areas. We have ...

In nuclear physics, "magic numbers" identify specific numbers of protons or neutrons that lead to especially stable nuclei.

To date, the collaboration has detected dozens of merger events since its first Nobel Prize-winning discovery. Early detected mergers involved either two black holes or two neutron stars. In 2021, ...

Fifty experts on nuclear physics, particle physics and astrophysics met at CERN from 9 to 13 June to discuss how to use ...

Double-column spectrometer remedies traditional shortcomings to drastically improve counting efficiency and resolution ...

See a pair of superheavy neutron stars collide in this simulation with gravitational wave audio. "An audible tone and a ...

Physics is the search for and application of rules that can help us understand and predict the world around us. Central to physics are ideas such as energy, mass, particles and waves. Physics ...

where E and Er are incident neutron energy and relative neutron energy concerning target velocity sampled from the target temperature, respectively. A and k are the relative target mass to neutron ...

In typical ion trap experiments, two or more electrodes are drive by sine waves. Their amplitude and frequency determine the atomic mass (amu) of the particles to be trapped. Thus, by sweeping one of ...
