Part one of a four part series on the fundamental forces (or interactions) of physics begins with the strong force or strong ...

For the first time, physicists have developed a model that explains the origins of unusually stable magic nuclei based directly on the interactions between their protons and neutrons. Published in ...

Scientists conduct the first direct probes of the interactions between protons and neutrons inside nuclei. The strong force is one of the four fundamental forces of nature, along with gravity, ...

Researchers study neutron star crusts by simulating neutron matter then adding “hidden” neutrons to mediate interactions between “real” neutrons. Next, neural networks construct a quantum wave ...

A new study identifies a transition in the strong nuclear force that illuminates the structure of a neutron star's core. Most ordinary matter is held together by an invisible subatomic glue known as ...

Studying and designing novel materials is a central application of quantum mechanics. Chemists, materials scientists, and ...

AMES, Iowa – James Vary has been waiting for nuclear physics experiments to confirm the reality of a “tetraneutron” that he and his colleagues theorized, predicted and first announced during a ...
