Exotic nuclei near and beyond the proton drip line exhibit a range of unique decay processes, including β-delayed proton emission, α decay, and direct proton radioactivity. Spectroscopic studies ...
Recent findings from research we have been carrying out at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at Cern in Geneva suggest that we might be closing in on signs of undiscovered physics. If confirmed, these ...
For the first time, scientists observe a new and rare decay mode where oxygen-13 breaks into three helium nuclei and a proton following beta decay. Scientists have previously observed interesting ...
If dark matter particles decay, then scientists could hunt for signs of this process, including X-ray or gamma-ray radiation or even emitted "ghost particle" neutrinos, in vast clusters of galaxies.
The detector array consists of plastic scintillator detectors, quadrant silicon detectors (QSD), double-sided silicon detectors (DSSD) and high-purity germanium (HPGe) detectors. Exotic nuclei near ...
