Watch an animation of a black hole shooting jets of particles through a "collapsing star at nearly the speed of light" and ...

This progress means that, for the first time, complicated astrophysical events like shocks and turbulence can be studied in a ...

From cosmic rays to CT scans, radiation surrounds us but not all exposure is dangerous. Here’s how to separate fact from fear ...

Physicists confirm DT fusion insights from a 1938 experiment. The findings connect past theory with current fusion efforts. A ...

We present a new standoff imaging technique able to provide 3-dimensional (3D) images of gamma-ray sources distributed in the environment. Unlike standard 3D tomographic methods, this technique does ...

In gamma-ray spectroscopy and imaging, the natural gamma-ray background can significantly reduce detection sensitivity, especially when the source is weak and the background varies substantially. This ...

"This discovery heralds a broader understanding of the diversity in massive stars' deaths and a need for deeper investigations into the whole landscape of stellar evolution." ...

Hollow atoms are special atoms with multiple missing electrons in their inner shells, while their outer shells are still ...

A groundbreaking collaboration between Los Alamos scientists and Duke University has resurrected a nearly forgotten 1938 ...

Astronomers from Bulgaria and Egypt have performed multi-wavelength observations of a well-known blazar designated S5 ...

An attosecond—or 0.000000000000000001 second—is no time at all for a person. That is not so for electrons, atoms and ...

Researchers have proposed a groundbreaking solution to the problem of nuclear waste — one that could transform how we manage it.
