The study of atomic nuclei is by now a very active and developed field, with both fundamental and technological implications. Its more fundamental spin-off, particle physics, while constantly refining ...

From the early scattering experiments of Rutherford to the colliding beam experiments that produced the top quark with a mass almost as large as Rutherford's gold nucleus, particle beams have been the ...

For more than half a century, particle physicists have theorized the existence of a “glueball,” a particle made entirely of gluons. While the past few decades have produced some compelling candidates, ...

The LXXI International conference "NUCLEUS - 2021. Nuclear physics and elementary particle physics. Nuclear physics technologies" will be held virtually from September 20 to 25, 2021. The Conference ...

Particle physics might seem too complex for young children, but educators are finding enthusiasm and understanding even among the Sesame Street set. Jason Heeris, a physicist and signal-processing ...

Taken from the March 2021 issue of Physics World, where it first appeared under the headline "Rethinking nuclear for a greener planet" Troels Schönfeldt, co-founder and chief executive of Danish start ...

This year the Corfu2026 activities consist of eight events (one school, and seven workshops), bringing together world-class scientists and young researchers to interact and forge new collaborations.
