Physicists have long-suspected that the building blocks of protons experienced quantum entanglement. Now, researchers have the first direct evidence — after using a trick to infer subatomic particles' ...
Thomas Jefferson Lab's 'Visualizing the Nucleus' animation offers insights into nuclear physics, showcasing protons, neutrons ...
A new analysis of data from the PHENIX experiment at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) reveals fresh evidence that ...
"With evidence that quarks and gluons are entangled, this picture has changed. We have a much more complicated, dynamic ...
The year 2025 has been proclaimed the International Year of Quantum Science and Technology by the United Nations, recognizing ...
These nuclei had specific numbers of protons or neutrons, or magic numbers, as physicist Eugene Wigner called them. The race to figure out what made these nuclei so stable began. Understanding ...
Physicists turn to supercomputers to help build a 3D picture of the structures of protons and neutrons. A team of scientists ...
A team of researchers from GSI/FAIR, Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz, and the Helmholtz Institute Mainz has succeeded in ...
Brookhaven National Laboratory and collaborators have a new way to use data from high-energy particle smashups to peer inside ...
HEISENBERG'S well-known assumption, ascribing the neutron-proton interaction to the exchange of the electric charge, seems to be irreconcilable with Fermi's theory of β-radioactivity 1.
Electron–proton collisions Study reveals importance of entanglement entropy. (Courtesy: Kevin Coughlin/Brookhaven National Laboratory) An international team of physicists has used the principle of ...
At the bottom of the chart are the fundamental particles—quarks, bosons (eg Higgs, w +, w -, z ), protons, neutrons, ...
