For the first time, physicists have developed a model that explains the origins of unusually stable magic nuclei based ...

Researchers at the University of Jyväskylä (Finland), in cooperation with national and international research groups, have ...

A recent international research project has used advanced microscopy techniques and computational modeling to discover why ...

Scientists at Delft University of Technology have managed to watch a single atomic nucleus flip its magnetic state in real time. Using a scanning tunneling microscope, they indirectly read the nucleus ...

A nuclear transition such as that in thorium-229 will be much less disturbed in the solid state, and its clock transition will be mostly preserved even in a crystal environment. The solid-state ...

Lise Meitner, a brilliant physicist, was instrumental in understanding nuclear fission but was overlooked for the Nobel Prize ...

Gene therapy holds the promise of preventing and curing disease by manipulating gene expression within a patient's cells. However, to be effective, the new gene must make it into a cell's nucleus. The ...

Researchers have identified rare proton emissions that reveal how the neck of a nucleus stretches and snaps, providing a new ...

Researchers have used advanced microscopy and computational modeling to show how herpesvirus infection affects host-cell nucleus structure.

Nuclear mechanobiology has rapidly emerged as a transformative interdisciplinary field at the intersection of cell biology, biophysics, engineering, and materials science. This discipline focuses on ...
