Let's talk Einstein and Nuclear Physics. What does E=MC2 actually mean? Why is it useful? It's time for our second to final Physics episode. So, let's talk Einstein and Nuclear Physics. What does ...

Nuclear physics research is focused on understanding the matter composed of quarks and gluons, which makes up 99% of the mass of the universe. Most of this matter is found at the core of atoms, the ...

The theoretical view of the structure of the atom nucleus is not carved in stone. Particularly, nuclear physics research could benefit from approaches found in other fields of physics. The theoretical ...

Researchers have combined theory and experiments to show that nuclear polarization does not limit studies of muonic atoms, clearing the way for new nuclear physics experiments. University of ...

Nuclear and plasma physics together probe matter under extreme conditions, from the sub-atomic forces that bind protons and neutrons into nuclei, to the collective behaviour of fully ionised gases in ...

Nuclear and plasma physics form complementary pillars in our understanding of the fundamental forces and states of matter. Nuclear physics investigates the structure, dynamics and interactions of ...
