Researchers have just created a new super-heavy isotope of seaborgium, called seaborgium-257. This type of unstable atom does not exist naturally on Earth. Seaborgium-257 lasts for ...

New research from Professor Guillermo Ameer’s team shows how a shape change of a cell’s nucleus can trigger regenerative signals and improve implant performance.

An atom consists of a heavy center, called the nucleus, made of particles called protons and neutrons. An atom has lighter ...

First, let's explore the atom's architecture. Formed from a cluster of protons and neutrons at the center of an atom, a nucleus is 10,000 times smaller than the atom as a whole, "like a fly in a ...

Argentinian astronomers have employed the upgraded Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (uGMRT) to perform high-resolution radio ...

An atom is best visualized as a tight, dense nucleus surrounded by buzzing, orbiting electrons. This picture immediately leads to a question: How do electrons keep whirling around the nucleus ...

Researchers have been able to initiate a controlled movement in the very heart of an atom. They caused the atomic nucleus to interact with one of the electrons in the outermost shells of the atom ...

An atom consists of a nucleus containing protons and neutrons, surrounded by electrons. ? The properties of protons close protonSubatomic particle with a positive charge and a relative mass of 1.

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 ...
