A team of researchers at the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) at Michigan State University (MSU) has discovered that cobalt-70 isotopes form different nuclear shapes when their energy levels ...

A green energy sea cable project overseen by Ed Miliband risks spreading nuclear waste across the pristine beaches of Orkney.

Since the atomic nucleus was first proposed in 1911, physicists simply assumed it was round. But are the nuclei of atoms really round? Intuitively this shape makes sense and physicists believed it ...

Some atoms are stable, while others seem to fall apart. Lead-208 will probably last forever, while the synthetic isotope technetium-99 exists for just hours. The difference lies in the structure of ...

Instead, high-energy radiation and electromagnetic pulses dominate, posing serious risks to satellites, spacecraft, and ...

A new investigation of the early Universe led by Poland's National Centre for Nuclear Research has just found that there may ...
