New benchmark for theoretical modelling The charge radii obtained from muonic helium-3 and helium-4 serve as important reference values for modern ab initio theories — that is, physical models that ...

During a deeply inelastic collision with a proton, a relativistic electron (highlighted in blue) can emit a high-energy photon (purple here) that penetrates interior of the proton, where it ‘sees’ ...

Nuclear decay and fusion dynamics constitute central pillars in modern nuclear physics, with implications ranging from energy production and astrophysical phenomena to the synthesis of novel elements.

Photoproduction and spin asymmetries in deuteron reactions represent a pivotal research area in modern nuclear physics. These studies elucidate the intricate interplay between electromagnetic ...

A Los Alamos collaboration has replicated an important but largely forgotten physics experiment: the first deuterium-tritium (DT) fusion observation. As described in the article published in Physical ...
