The origin of heavy elements in our universe is theorized to be the result of neutron star collisions, which produce conditions hot and dense enough for free neutrons to merge with atomic nuclei and ...
The COHERENT particle physics experiment has firmly established the existence of a new kind of neutrino interaction. Because neutrinos are electrically neutral and interact only weakly with matter, ...
Scientists at CERN have reported on their first significant evidence for a process predicted by theory, paving the way for searches for evidence of new physics in particle processes that could explain ...
npj Biological Physics and Mechanics is part of the npj Series: open access community journals from Nature Portfolio publishing high-quality research, reviews and commentary across the life, health, ...
A Los Alamos simulation of an accretion disk after the collision of two neutron stars. This event generates both light (blue) and heavy (red) elements. The origin of heavy elements in our universe is ...
