Scientists have uncovered an unexpected breakdown of nuclear order in a remarkably symmetric atom, challenging long-standing ...

Nuclear physics is the branch of science that examines the properties and behaviour of atomic nuclei, the densely packed assemblies of protons and neutrons held together by the strong interaction.

In nuclear physics, scientists routinely use scintillating material to help identify the particles produced in experiments. When more radiation impacts the material, it will emit a bigger signal, ...
