The researchers used Coulomb excitation, a method where atomic nuclei are excited through electromagnetic interactions without involving the nuclear strong force. "Coulomb excitation is exceptionally ...

Imagine a heavy book resting on a table. If you try to gently push the book across the table with the tip of your finger, it may first appear to remain motionless—it needs a lot more force to start ...

With the help of the world's most powerful X-ray laser, a research team has achieved an important breakthrough: Using the example of the pharmaceutically active substance 2-thiouracil, they applied a ...

Charge is a property of a body which experiences a force in an electric field. Charge is measured in coulombs (C). Since electrons are so small and one electron will not have much of an effect ...

The red star indicates the epicenter of the Maduo Earthquake. The focal mechanism is from the Global Centroid Moment Tensor database (GCMT). Green circles are aftershocks above M3 (https://news ...

A quantum "miracle material" could support magnetic switching, a team of researchers at the University of Regensburg and University of Michigan has shown. The study "Controlling Coulomb ...
