An international team of scientists has unveiled the most comprehensive model yet that explains how cells control the flow of materials in and out of their nuclei—solving one of biology's oldest ...

As nuclear energy ramps up to move towards decarbonization goals, machine learning and AI techniques offer potential to speed up new reactor design and improve safety of the existing fleet. However, ...

It has called for consultations with private players to rework its proposal following the enactment of the Act.

Matt Korda, the associate director of the Nuclear Information Project at the Federation of American Scientists, assisted USA ...

A team of theorists has extended their previous critical analysis of the Lead Radius Experiment (PREX). The experiment involved deducing the neutron size of a lead atom’s nucleus by measuring a tiny ...

Scientists at a U.S. government plasma lab have discovered a missing component in nuclear fusion equations that could speed up development of a working reactor. Specifically, the discovery could ...

On the Wednesday, January 7, 2026, episode of The Excerpt podcast: “The Nuclear Sponge” is a five-part project by USA TODAY ...

Nuclear structure and scattering theory form the core of our understanding of atomic nuclei, unraveling how protons and neutrons interact via the strong force and arrange themselves into complex ...

Collective models have long provided an essential framework for understanding the behaviour of atomic nuclei by treating them as systems of interacting particles that can exhibit coherent, macroscopic ...

The origin of heavy elements in our universe is theorized to be the result of neutron star collisions, which produce conditions hot and dense enough for free neutrons to merge with atomic nuclei and ...
