Plasma pinches: From pursuits of nuclear fusion to an attractive point source of accelerated protons for proton radiography.

The movement of protons through electrically charged water is one of the most fundamental processes in chemistry. It is evident in everything from eyesight to energy storage to rocket fuel—and ...

Gear-obsessed editors choose every product we review. We may earn commission if you buy from a link. Why Trust Us? Researchers just found out where the secret mass of protons is located. Physicists ...

Scientists have a new way to use data from high-energy particle smashups to peer inside protons. Their approach uses quantum information science to map out how particle tracks streaming from ...

Protons might be stretchier than they should be. The subatomic particles are built of smaller particles called quarks, which are bound together by a powerful interaction known as the strong force. New ...

Stephen has degrees in science (Physics major) and arts (English Literature and the History and Philosophy of Science), as well as a Graduate Diploma in Science Communication. Stephen has degrees in ...

New research conducted by nuclear physicists is using a method that connects theories of gravitation to interactions among the smallest particles of matter. The result is insight into the strong force ...

In this International Year of Quantum Science and Technology, physicists worldwide are celebrating a century since the establishment of quantum mechanics. The celebration has brought to the forefront ...

Being able to see inside an object is essential to understanding how it works. X-rays revolutionized medicine by giving doctors a noninvasive way to look beneath the skin — to spot broken bones, ...
