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

This 'solar system' model of the atom is the way that most people think about atoms today. It is known as the Rutherford-Bohr model of atomic structure. The neutron was difficult to discover ...

MIT physicists have captured the first images of individual atoms freely interacting in space. The pictures reveal ...

Historically, small molecule drugs have been precisely designed down to the atomic scale. Considering their relatively large complex structures, nanomedicines have lagged behind. Researchers argue ...

Under ultracold conditions, bosons form a curious state of matter known as a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC), in which all the ...

"Every building and every structure." Another soldier said the area looked "like Hiroshima". Breaking the Silence, a group of former Israeli soldiers that aims to raise awareness of the experience ...

Manuel Sans Segarra says near death experiences cannot be explained as hallucinations or dismissed in some cold scientific ...

Spectroscopic data on alkali-atom dimers residing on the surface of liquid helium nanodroplets have revealed that they are detected primarily in the weakly bound, metastable, spin-triplet state. Here, ...

Crystal structure ... positions describe the degree of freedom for atomic configurations that is allowed under the symmetry operations of a specific space group. Each atom is assigned a Wyckoff ...
