Proton therapy is an advanced radiation treatment that precisely targets tumors with a goal of limiting harm to healthy tissue. It may help reduce short- and long-term side effects, lower the risk of ...

Scientists at CERN have observed an unexpected phenomenon within the world’s largest particle accelerator that suggests that ...

In nuclear physics, "magic numbers" identify specific numbers of protons or neutrons that lead to especially stable nuclei.

The CMS and ATLAS experiments at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider have observed an unforeseen feature in the behaviour of top ...

While radiation treatments designed to kill cancer cells have come a long way, scientists and doctors are always exploring ...

Novel technological solutions for the design of positron emission tomography (PET) systems to be used in the in-beam beam-on monitoring of proton tracks within biological tissues represent the ...

Proton therapy is a type of external beam radiation therapy that delivers high dose radiation directly to cancer cells. Learn about its benefits and uses for breast cancer treatment.

In this paper, a one-dimensional electrical circuit model of HPower proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) is presented. The model includes the effects of electrochemical and electrical processes ...

An invisible force has long eluded detection within the halls of the world’s most famous particle accelerator—until now.

The cutting-edge elementary particle observation facility here where it is hoped proton decay will be observed for the first time is on track to open in 2028 with a giant underground cavity nearing ...
