An international collaboration led by the Fritz Haber Institute (FHI) has successfully mapped Electron-Transfer-Mediated ...

Researchers have uncovered how atoms subtly rearrange themselves for up to a trillionth of a second before releasing low-energy electrons after X-ray excitation.

Solar activity: does the Sun affect radioactive decay? Image of a solar flare taken in 2014 by NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory spacecraft. (Courtesy: NASA/SDO) A new study of the radioactive decay ...

Together with an international team, researchers from the Molecular Physics Department at the Fritz Haber Institute have ...

Certain isotopes such as Indium-115 (In-115) are extremely long lived, taking over 100 trillon years for half of the Indium atoms to decay away. These isotopes allow scientists to probe the precise ...

The Map shows the effects of a 4800 nT/min geomagnetic field disturbance at 50° geomagnetic latitude scenario. The regions outlined are susceptible to electrical grid collapse due to the effects of ...

An experiment at the Brookhaven National Laboratory in the US may have found further evidence of new physics beyond the Standard Model of particle physics. The E949 team has detected twice as many ...

In nuclear beta decay an up quark ‘u’ in a proton converts into an up down quark ‘d,’ turning the proton into a neutron and emitting a positron and a neutrino. This work affects interpretation of beta ...

If you’ve been a science fan for the last few years, you’re aware of the exciting results to emerge from the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), which in 2012 found the Higgs boson, the subatomic particle ...

Researchers have taken a major step toward a theoretical first-principles description of neutrinoless double-beta decay. Observing this yet-unconfirmed rare nuclear process would have important ...

Stephen has degrees in science (Physics major) and arts (English Literature and the History and Philosophy of Science), as well as a Graduate Diploma in Science Communication. Stephen has degrees in ...
