A research team from the Institute of Modern Physics (IMP) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) has directly measured the masses of two highly unstable atomic nuclei, phosphorus-26 and sulfur-27.

Researchers from the Institute of Modern Physics (IMP) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences have reported new experimental results that advance our understanding of reaction dynamics and exotic nuclear ...

Most chemical reactions take place within just a few picoseconds – that is, 10-12 seconds. Several techniques are already available for studying reactions between gases or solutions, but the dynamics ...

An Indian ed-tech physics teacher's innovative method of teaching chirality in chemistry has gone viral. Using his body to demonstrate molecular rotation during a live session, the teacher's unique ...

With nuclear data playing an integral part in applications ranging from oil drilling to homeland security, it’s vital that it is accurate. Nuclear data – a collection of parameters derived or directly ...

With the help of a little alcohol, scientists have discovered supposedly impossible chemical reactions in the cold reaches of space. Organic molecules like methanol are being created and destroyed in ...

Researchers at the Center for Self-assembly and Complexity (CSC), within the Institute for Basic Science (IBS, South Korea) report the connection between chemical reactions and music, saying that ...

The Sun is the source of the overwhelming majority of light, heat, and energy on Earth's surface, and is powered by nuclear fusion. But without the quantum rules that govern the Universe at a ...
