Physicists probed why lead's nucleus reacts unlike others when hit by electrons and found that instead of clarity, the puzzle is more complex than expected. (Nanowerk News) New result with the A1 ...

Scientists have produced one of the most neutron-rich isotopes, hydrogen-6, in an electron scattering experiment. The experiment presents a new method for investigating light, neutron-rich nuclei and ...

An electron neutrino scattering event from the latest NOvA dataset. The brighter the yellow pixels, the more energy that was deposited. Physicists know this is a neutrino because it occurs in time ...

Responsive technique: Jonathan Peters using an electron microscope at Trinity College Dublin (Courtesy: Lewys Jones and Jonathan Peters/Trinity College Dublin) A new scanning transmission electron ...

TEM works by transmitting a beam of electrons through an ultra-thin specimen. As the electrons interact with the specimen, they are scattered or transmitted, producing an image that is magnified and ...

Why does lead behave so differently from every other atomic nucleus when struck by electrons? A team of physicists at Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (JGU) has taken an important step toward ...
