Let's talk Einstein and Nuclear Physics. What does E=MC2 actually mean? Why is it useful? It's time for our second to final Physics episode. So, let's talk Einstein and Nuclear Physics. What does ...

NASA’s push for a new nuclear rocket engine is not just another upgrade to the hardware we strap to the bottom of spacecraft.

Our account of the strong nuclear force is full of imaginative terms. Six flavors of quarks have color charges of red, green and blue, which dictate how they bind to form particles like protons and ...

Shape shifter: The nucleus of the xenon atom can assume different shapes depending on the balance of internal forces at play. When two xenon atoms collide at the LHC, simulations indicate that the ...

Nuclear physics is a mature science with strong connections to both fundamental physics and nuclear astrophysics, namely the origin of the chemical elements 1,2. Nuclear physics is over 100 years old, ...

Nobel laureate Otto Hahn is credited with the discovery of nuclear fission. Fission is one of the most important discoveries of the 20th century, yet Hahn considered something else to be his best ...
