By recreating a nuclear fireball, scientists uncovered unexpected chemistry that could change how radioactive fallout is understood.
Though atomic nuclei are often depicted as static clusters of protons and neutrons (nucleons), the particles are actually bustling with movement. Thus, the nucleons carry a range of momenta. Sometimes ...
World-class particle-accelerator facilities and recent advances in neutron-star observation give physicists a new toolkit for describing nuclear interactions at a wide range of densities. Michigan ...
Fuel-coolant interaction dynamics play a central role in the prevention and mitigation of severe accidents in nuclear power plants. When molten core materials, commonly referred to as corium, breach ...
Scientists at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory recreated part of the intense chaos inside a nuclear fireball to better ...
Using the advanced GALILEO Array coupled with the 4π Si-ball EUCLIDES, the researchers conducted in-depth spectroscopic analysis to track and identify the reactions. The gamma-gamma coincidence method ...
