MOKOPANE, South Africa (AP) — Researchers in South Africa have injected radioactive material into the horns of 20 rhinos as part of a research project aimed at reducing poaching. The idea is that ...

The research project “BARB – Biomedical Applications of Radioactive Ion Beams” funded by a prestigious ERC Advanced Grant to Professor Marco Durante, head of the Biophysics Department at the GSI ...

Using lasers with precisely tuned frequency, λ, physicists control rotational states of radium monofluoride molecules and excite specific rotational levels, characterized by the quantum number, J.

In the quest for ultra-precise timekeeping, scientists have turned to nuclear clocks. Unlike optical atomic clocks—which rely on electronic transitions—nuclear clocks utilize the energy transitions in ...

This is where dosimetry plays a vital role. Dosimetry measures how much radiation is delivered during medical procedures and ensures that patients receive exactly the dose prescribed. Reliable dose ...
