An international team of researchers has systematically measured the β-decay half-lives of 40 nuclei near calcium-54, ...

Certain isotopes such as Indium-115 (In-115) are extremely long lived, taking over 100 trillon years for half of the Indium atoms to decay away. These isotopes allow scientists to probe the precise ...

In nuclear beta decay an up quark ‘u’ in a proton converts into an up down quark ‘d,’ turning the proton into a neutron and emitting a positron and a neutrino. This work affects interpretation of beta ...

Double beta decay research represents a pivotal field at the intersection of nuclear physics and particle physics, probing the fundamental nature of neutrinos and their role in the matter–antimatter ...

A research team at the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) is the first ever to observe a beta-delayed neutron emission from fluorine-25, a rare, unstable nuclide. Using the FRIB Decay Station ...

The study of heavy flavour physics focuses on the behaviour of particles containing heavy quarks, such as the bottom (b) and charm (c) quarks, within the framework of the Standard Model and beyond.

Neutrinos and antineutrinos are elementary particles with small but unknown mass. High-precision atomic mass measurements have revealed that beta decay of the silver-110 isomer has a strong potential ...

In recent years, some large physics experiments worldwide have been trying to gather evidence of a nuclear process known as neutrinoless double beta (0νββ) decay. This is a rare process that entails ...

IonQ Inc. (NYSE:IONQ) is one of the best AI stocks to buy according to hedge funds. On June 25, IonQ made headlines with a significant breakthrough in fundamental physics by achieving the first known ...

An international research team has sparked interest in the scientific community with results in quantum physics. In their current study, the researchers reinterpret the Higgs mechanism, which gives ...

Researchers at CERN have observed an exceptionally rare particle decay event, potentially paving the way to uncover new ...
