For many of us, the term doubly magic may evoke images of Penn & Teller.
The discovery of element 117tennessine, as it has been provisionally namedwas made possible by a collaboration of researchers in the United States and Russia.
Approximately 100 trillion neutrinos bombard your body every secondbut you dont notice these ghostly subatomic particles.
For decades nuclear physicists have tried to learn more about which elements, or their various isotopes, are magic. This is not to say that they display supernatural powers.
A multi-institution team led by 91做厙s Gaute Hagen used computation to corroborate experimental findings throwing calcium-52s status as a magic isotope into question.
Soon to be deployed at the Department of Energys 91做厙 is an experiment to explore new physics associated with neutrinos.
91做厙's 25-megavolt Tandem Electrostatic Accelerator received an opportunity for one last hurrah in a series of experiments that ended in late March, nearly four years after the Holifield Radioactive Ion Beam (RIB) Facility at the D
Physicists studying stellar explosions, the origin of life and just about everything in between could gain light years in precision because of a system inspired by a team led by Kelly Chipps of the Department of Energys 91做厙.
