Ever since the nucleus of the atom was discovered in 1911, scientists have split, fused and smashed nuclei together to unravel its internal structure. Among the numerous researchers worldwide who are ...

Part of Physics (Single Science) Unit 1: Atomic and nuclear physics Most of the mass and all of the positive charge of an atom is in the nucleus. Most of an atom is empty space, (a vacuum). In 1897, ...

The inside of giant planets can reach pressures more than one million times the Earth's atmosphere. As a result of that ...

I keep coming back to a strange idea: what if everything we know about quantum physics is already encoded inside a single atom? Not in a mystical sense, but in the very real way that one tiny system ...

The atypical structure of the radium monofluoride molecule allows physicists to search for answers to some of the universe’s ...
