Physicists confirm DT fusion insights from a 1938 experiment. The findings connect past theory with current fusion efforts. A ...

The physics of the innermost shells of atoms is qualitatively different in several respect from that of outer electrons. For single deep holes, correlation effects are slight, while the effects of ...

Ettore Majorana vanished in March 1938. According to Frank Close in Destroyer of Worlds, the 31-year-old Sicilian physicist ...

In structural biology, validation and verification of new atomic models are crucial and necessary steps which limit the production of reliable molecular models for publications and databases. An ...

The partitioning of electron spin density among atoms in a material gives atomic spin moments (ASMs), which are important for understanding magnetic properties. We compare ASMs computed using ...

Ernest Rutherford, left, and JJ Thomson at the Cavendish Laboratory in the 1930s. Initially, Rutherford’s legacy pointed to New Zealand as a potential leader in nuclear science. When I was growing up ...

Feature For artificial intelligence researchers, the launch of OpenAI's ChatGPT on November 30, 2022, changed the world in a way similar to the detonation of the first atomic bomb. The Trinity test, ...
