Many atomic nuclei have a magnetic field similar to that of Earth. However, directly at the surface of a heavy nucleus such ...

Photo: Niels Bohr's research notes for his new atomic theory Rutherford's find came from a very strange experience. Everyone at that time imagined the atom as a "plum pudding." That is ...

For a summary of the theory just previous to the development of the new methods the reader is referred to a lecture of the author, Atomic Theory and Mechanics,œ published In this periodical ...

Instead of weakening the structure, these broken bonds provide just the right charge balance to keep the material stable, ...

A new way of explaining gravity could bring us a step closer to resolving the heretofore irresolvable differences it has with ...

We are at a critical time and supporting climate journalism is more important than ever. Science News and our parent organization, the Society for Science, need your help to strengthen ...

The chemical atomic theory and the kinetic theory of gases of the nineteenth century brought out the aspect of discontinuity for the first time, and recent sub-atomic physics has gone a stage further.

Atomic-scale imaging reveals that chalcogen atoms play a crucial role in Cooper pairing in Fe-based superconductors, offering new insights into high-Tc superconductivity mechanisms. Superconductivity ...

The European Space Agency (ESA) has launched one of its most precise science experiments to date — the Atomic Clock Ensemble in Space (ACES)—to the International Space Station (ISS).
