For a mere moment after the Big Bang, no neutrons or protons are thought to have existed. These neutral and positively charged particles, respectively, make up the center of all atoms today. But ...
Scientists discovered “magic” top quarks at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider, demonstrating how the facility has evolved to support quantum computing research.
P95 and N95 are rating classifiers for masks manufactured to keep people from inhaling dust and other small particles in unsafe environments.
UCR-led study finds that tiny, invisible gases long thought to be irrelevant in cloud formation appear to play a major role in determining whether clouds form—and possibly whether it rains. This ...
Utrecht University researchers Rodolfo Subert and Marjolein Dijkstra show in their latest study that complex ...
Proper destruction of sensitive documents requires understanding both classification levels and legal obligations.
US researchers have quietly crossed a threshold in nuclear materials science, using intense neutron beams to peer inside ...
Researchers from the Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology (OIST) and the University of Oklahoma have pinpointed a one-dimensional system where such particles can exist and have examined their ...
When repeated X-class flares are shot off by the Sun, even before a cloud of particles appears on the radar, the first effects may reach Earth at the speed of sound. This difference is important as ...
Small household appliances with electric heating coils and brushed DC motors—such as hairdryers, toasters and air fryers—are significant sources of ultrafine particles (UFP) that may pose health risks ...
