PSR J0901-4046 is the most magnetized radio pulsar known, study finds
Astronomers have investigated an ultraslow radio pulsar known as PSR J0901-4046, finding that it has an extremely high magnetic field—at a level of 30 quadrillion Gauss. The discovery, published April 7 in Physical Review D, makes PSR J0901-4046 th.....»»
Visualizing differences in nuclear structure
Helium usually has two protons and two neutrons strongly bound to each other, often forming a substructure within the nucleus. A nucleus composed of several such substructures is called a cluster structure. In the standard picture, nuclei are difficu.....»»
Study shows genes are read faster and more sloppily in old age
