Scientists are exploring a new type of optical atomic clock based on ytterbium-173 ions that could help define the future standard for measuring time.

Physicists have discovered a surprising new “Island of Inversion” in a place no one expected: among nuclei where the number ...

ENGLISH readers will welcome this authoritative account by Prof. Bohr of the application of his theory to atomic structure. The essay has been translated from the Zeitschrift fur Physik by L. F.

The Bohr Model of Hydrogen revolutionized our understanding of atomic structure and behavior. In this video, we simplify the calculations of force and velocity within the hydrogen atom using Bohr’s ...

To unlock materials of the future, including better photocatalysts or light-switchable superconductors, researchers need to ...

She laid much of the theoretical groundwork for the atomic bomb, although she did not participate directly in its production.

Physicists have found a new “island of inversion” in the nucleus of molybdenum-84, a perfectly balanced atom with equal numbers of protons and neutrons. The discovery upends a decades-old assumption ...

Maria Goeppert Mayer is remembered as one of the most important physicists of the twentieth century. She was born in Germany ...

Garching, in collaboration with Prof. Dr. Randolf Pohl from the Institute for Physics at Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (JGU), have successfully conducted experiments on hydrogen atoms which ...

By placing single-atom-thick adlayers of p-block metals on commonly employed gold electrodes (d-block), a research team at National Taiwan University has successfully quantified the "interfacial ...

In a paper published today in Nature Synthesis, a team from the lab of University of Chicago Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering (UChicago PME) and Chemistry Department Prof. Paul ...

When Richard Feynman first conceived of quantum computers in the 1980s, he believed they should primarily investigate quantum phenomena. So that’s what a group of chemists did: they used quantum ...
