What happens when the smallest building blocks of matter refuse to play by the rules of traditional physics? For decades, ...

Silver-110’s decay reveals a promising path to measure antineutrino mass. New data could reshape future neutrino studies.

Every action in our world is powered by a "force of nature." Currently, there are four main forces that scientists cling to; ...

Each neutron packs 3 million electron volts of energy – similar to particles emitted during an atomic bomb explosion. Neutrons are tiny particles inside atoms, with no electric charge.

The number of electrons surrounding the nucleus of an atom is equal to the number of protons in the atom’s nucleus. Neutron Particle in the nucleus that has almost the same mass as a proton but has no ...

First, yes, we understand that technically speaking this neutron star is 168,037 years old, given the distance. But as soon as you start adjusting for time like that, things start to get messy.
