Researchers propose a novel strategy to increase production of exotic nuclei near the neutron drip line through multi-step fragmentation of high-energy beams in thick targets. This approach effectively enhances yields of neutron-rich fragments, overcoming limitations imposed by low cross sections.
Researchers propose using argon-⁴⁰Ar as a cost-effective alternative to ⁴⁸Ca for synthesizing superheavy elements. The new method achieves comparable evaporation residue cross sections and requires significantly less beam energy.

A recent theoretical study maps several isotopes' potential energy surfaces, uncovering a range of ground-state and isomeric shapes that depend sensitively on nuclear pairing interactions. The research reveals rare prosperous shape coexistence in a single nucleus, challenging traditional nuclear structure models.
A new study by Osaka Metropolitan University researchers suggests that the nuclear structure of titanium-48 changes depending on its distance from the nucleus. The findings provide clues to the α-decay process in heavy nuclei and could help solve a 100-year-old physics mystery.
Researchers have documented a unique two-proton decay mechanism in Magnesium-18, revealing complex interactions between nuclear forces. The study uses advanced techniques to analyze the phenomenon, providing crucial insights into extreme nuclear conditions.
Researchers studied the strong nuclear force using nickel-64 nuclei, discovering that they change shapes under high-energy conditions. The team used advanced detectors to analyze gamma rays and particle direction, revealing two possible shapes for the nucleus: oblate and prolate.
Purdue researchers have created a 2D array of electron and nuclear spin qubits, enabling atomic-scale nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and reading/writing quantum information with nuclear spins in 2D materials. This method harnesses three nitrogen nuclei at a time for longer coherence times than electron qubits.

DJI Air 3 (RC-N2) captures 4K mapping passes and environmental surveys with dual cameras, long flight time, and omnidirectional obstacle sensing.
Researchers have simultaneously captured the movements of electrons and nuclei in a molecule after it was excited with light, revealing both sides of the story in a single experiment. This marks the first time this has been done with ultrafast electron diffraction.
The discovery of nucleophosmin's self-interaction mechanism could advance understanding of ALS and acute myeloid leukemia. Nucleophosmin plays a critical role in regulating the construction of ribosomes, which assemble proteins using RNA genetic code.
Scientists have identified a previously undetected motion in the human cell nucleus, which decreases over time during the cell cycle and marks the first physical feature to systematically change with the cell cycle. This internal clock-like mechanism could contribute to understanding nuclear envelope function in health and disease.
Researchers at Stanford Medicine discovered a single nucleotide change in human DNA that affects the expression of a key protein involved in hair color. This subtle change in gene expression can have significant impacts on an individual's hair color, with blonde hair resulting from increased KITLG expression in hair follicles.

Researchers sequenced genes responsible for light-sensitive pigment in 40 bird species, revealing at least 14 shifts between violet and ultraviolet color vision. This evolution is driven by single nucleotide changes in DNA, resulting in unique visual adaptations among birds.
A team of researchers from the University of Iowa has identified Gadd45a as a key culprit causing muscle atrophy, reprogramming hundreds of genes that ultimately lead to muscle deterioration. The protein affects muscles in two main ways: instructing cells to produce fewer proteins and causing existing proteins to break down.
