MIT researchers have devised a new molecular technique that lets electrons probe inside atomic nuclei, replacing massive particle accelerators with a tabletop setup. By studying radium monofluoride, ...

The hyperfine structure of radium monofluoride has been measured by researchers in the US and elsewhere with such precision ...

Physicists at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have discovered a new method that allows researchers to examine ...

Virtual particles exploit the natural fuzziness of the subatomic world, where if these ephemeral particles live briefly enough, they can also briefly borrow their energy from empty space. The haziness ...

Physicists at MIT have developed a new way to probe inside an atom's nucleus, using the atom's own electrons as "messengers" ...

In a Physical Review Letters study, the HOLMES collaboration has achieved the most stringent upper bound on the effective ...

Physicists at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have made a groundbreaking discovery, developing a tabletop ...

In fusion, hydrogen isotopes are heated to extremely high temperatures until they form plasma – superheated, electrically ...

The ‘inflationary’ model of cosmology explains many large-scale features of the Universe as the result of a primordial period ...

Developed by researchers at MIT, the method uses the atom’s own electrons as “messengers” within a molecule to help probe ...
