First coherent picture of an atomic nucleus made of quarks and gluons
The atomic nucleus is made up of protons and neutrons, particles that exist through the interaction of quarks bonded by gluons. It would seem, therefore, that it should not be difficult to reproduce all the properties of atomic nuclei hitherto observ.....»»

BNP-Track algorithm offers a clearer picture of biomolecules in motion
It's about to get easier to catch and analyze a high-quality image of fast-moving molecules. Assistant Professor Ioannis Sgouralis, Department of Mathematics, and colleagues have developed an algorithm that adds a new level to microscopy: super-resol.....»»
Physicists report new insights into exotic particles key to magnetism
MIT physicists and colleagues report new insights into exotic particles key to a form of magnetism that has attracted growing interest because it originates from ultrathin materials only a few atomic layers thick. The work, which could impact future.....»»
Nucleus Vulnerability Intelligence Platform enhances threat assessment and remediation speed
Nucleus Security has launched its Nucleus Vulnerability Intelligence Platform. Platform enables enterprises to aggregate, analyze, and act on insights from government, open-source, and premium threat intelligence feeds while reducing manual effort, a.....»»

Madison Symmetric Torus operates stable plasma at 10 times the Greenwald Limit
If net-positive fusion energy is to ever be achieved, density is key: the more atomic nuclei crashing into each other, the more efficient the reaction will be. Nearly 40 years ago, Martin Greenwald identified a density limit above which tokamak plasm.....»»
The Hisense U9 is coming, so the U6 gets a 40% discount
Bright picture meets great colors and fast web performance with the Hisense 65-inch U6HF. For a limited time, save $300 when you buy this set through Amazon......»»
NASA nears decision on what to do with Boeing’s troubled Starliner spacecraft
Boeing won't start flying operational crew missions with Starliner until a year from now. Enlarge / Boeing's Strainer spacecraft is seen docked at the International Space Station in this picture taken July 3. (credit: NASA).....»»
Is this how you get hot Jupiters?
When we think of Jupiter-type planets, we usually picture massive cloud-covered worlds orbiting far from their stars. That distance keeps their volatile gases from vaporizing from stellar heat, similar to what we're familiar with in our solar system......»»
Liquid metals offer potential for greener chemical processes, researchers say
University of Sydney researchers are proposing a new way to curb industrial emissions, by tapping into the "atomic intelligence" of liquid metals to deliver greener and more sustainable chemical reactions......»»
Every size Samsung S90C OLED TV has a huge discount — up to $2,100 off
It’s time to save big on one of Samsung’s best 2023 TVs. Each and every size of the S90C is discounted, which bodes well for fans of QD-OLED picture tech......»»
High-energy collision study reveals new insights into quark-gluon plasma
In high-energy physics, researchers have unveiled how high-energy partons lose energy in nucleus-nucleus collisions, an essential process in studying quark-gluon plasma (QGP). This finding could enhance our knowledge of the early universe moments aft.....»»
Scientists resolves a long-debated anomaly in how nuclei spin
Atomic nuclei come in different shapes, varying from football-like ("prolate") to pancake-like ("oblate"). Prolate and oblate shapes have different moments of inertia. This is a body's resistance to having its speed of rotation altered by an external.....»»
How to increase the resolution of an image in Photoshop
Do you need a picture that’s sharper, clearer, and better quality for a project or website? Here’s how to increase the resolution of an image in Photoshop......»»

MKULTRA: Making On The Down-Low
Last year at Maker Faire Bay Area on Mare Island, we came home with a picture of two awesomely masked makers. We put out a call in our Maker Faire newsletter hoping to elicit the evidently skilled makers behind these fanciful masks (see middle belo.....»»
3D visualization brings nuclear fusion to life
When it comes to promising forms of energy, nuclear fusion checks all the boxes: it's clean, abundant, continuous and safe. It's produced when the lightweight nuclei of two atoms fuse together to form a heavier nucleus, releasing large amounts of ene.....»»
First observation of the nuclear two-photon decay in bare atomic nuclei
For the first time, an international research team has succeeded in observing a two-photon decay on a so-called bare atomic nucleus from which the entire electron shell has been removed......»»
MechWarrior 5: Clans is All Quiet on the Western Front with mechs
We had two days of exclusive interviews and hands-on time with MechWarrior 5: Clans, painting a full picture of the mech game's sprawling war story......»»
Physicists observe excited states in lanthanum-120
For the first time, physicists have observed excited states in the very neutron-deficient odd-odd nucleus, lanthanum-120. The study, published in Physics Letters B, was conducted by researchers from the Institute of Modern Physics (IMP) of the Chines.....»»
