A type of hydrogen that doesn't interact with light could explain how long neutrons live and reveal the identity of the universe's dark matter, according to a new theory.

For scientists studying matter at extreme energies, understanding how large atomic cores like lead break apart when they pass ...

Explore the fundamental components of an atom: protons, neutrons, and electrons. This video discusses why the traditional model of the atom is inaccurate, highlighting the unpredictable nature of ...

The ongoing search for dark matter, the elusive type of matter that does not emit, absorb or reflect light and is estimated ...

The Standard Model of ... like the neutron and proton, and we have mesons, which are made of one quark and one antiquark. Apart from quarks, we have six leptons: electron, muon, tau and their ...

These findings confirmed that atomic nuclei can decay by losing individual protons, not just clusters like alpha particles.

For the first time in almost 30 years, the heaviest nucleus decaying via proton emission has been measured. The previous ...

A central mechanism behind information transfer in living cells depends on the transfer of electrons with a specific spin ...

A team of researchers from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology used Frontier to chart the isospin density of a neutron ...

New insights were gained, thanks to the Department of Energy’s Frontier supercomputer at Oak Ridge National Laboratory.
