Deblurring, practiced in optics, can reveal three-dimensional features of nuclear collisions.
Nuclear physicists find that the internal structures of protons and neutrons may be altered in different ways inside nuclei.
A first-of-its-kind measurement of the rare calcium-48 nucleus found a neutron-rich “thin skin” around a core of more evenly distributed protons and neutrons.
Colliding gold nuclei at various energies enables scientists to investigate phases of nuclear matter and their possible co-existence at a critical point.
Predictions for future measurements at the Electron-Ion Collider may help solve ‘proton spin’ mystery.
Researchers study the energy and angular dependence of how neutrons scatter off materials to improve reactor safety and efficiency.
