Neutron capture cross section measurements at the Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex (J-PARC) have been pivotal in advancing our understanding of nuclear reactions that underpin both ...

All around us are elements forged in stars, from the nickel and copper in coins to the gold and silver in jewelry. Scientists have a good understanding of how these elements form: In many cases, a ...
