Let's talk Einstein and Nuclear Physics. What does E=MC2 actually mean? Why is it useful? It's time for our second to final Physics episode. So, let's talk Einstein and Nuclear Physics. What does ...

Nuclear physics is a mature science with strong connections to both fundamental physics and nuclear astrophysics, namely the origin of the chemical elements 1,2. Nuclear physics is over 100 years old, ...

Kenyan scientist Fridah Mokaya made history as the first black woman to earn a PhD in Nuclear Physics from the University of ...

In a first, researchers from the U.S. and Germany excite Thorium-229 in opaque material, advancing optical nuclear clocks.

Type One Energy, a University of Wisconsin-Madison nuclear fusion spinoff company, is partnering with the Tennessee Valley ...

Our account of the strong nuclear force is full of imaginative terms. Six flavors of quarks have color charges of red, green and blue, which dictate how they bind to form particles like protons and ...

Shape shifter: The nucleus of the xenon atom can assume different shapes depending on the balance of internal forces at play. When two xenon atoms collide at the LHC, simulations indicate that the ...

Are you ready to be part of the next wave of energy innovators? The nuclear energy science certificate at the University of Wyoming offers a unique opportunity to dive deep into one of the most ...

The time is nigh for nuclear clocks. In a first, scientists have used a tabletop laser to bump an atomic nucleus into a higher energy state. It’s a feat that sets scientists on a path toward creating ...

Paul Stevenson receives funding from the UK Science and Technology Facilities Council. He is a member of the Green Party. This year marks the 103rd anniversary of the birth of nuclear physics, when ...
