Poll that shows support for cruise at 42 percent among likely gop voters, trump is 10 points behind at 32 percent. John casey third with 19 percent and with women, cruises lead nearly double. Jon for the democrats Bernie Sanders looks to strengthen his hand. He leads Hillary Clinton by five points in wisconsin and is strong among younger voters. Lets talk about what it all means without political panel. Matthew continuity, editor in chief of the Washington Free beacon and share a center, Politic...

The synthesis of two new isotopes, osmium-160 and tungsten-156, by scientists at the Institute of Modern Physics (IMP) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) and their collaborators has provided new insights into nuclear structure and raised the possibility that lead-164 could be a doubly magic nucleus with enhanced stability.

Subjecting a physical system to extreme conditions is one of the means often used to obtain a better understanding and deeper insight into its organization and structure. In the case of the atomic nucleus, one such approach is to investigate isotopes that have very different neutron-to-proton (N/Z) ratios than in stable nuclei. Light, neutron-rich isotopes exhibit the most asymmetric N/Z ratios and those lying beyond the limits of binding, which undergo spontaneous neutron emission and exist onl...

A nuclear reaction provides a glimpse at what is going on when neutron stars consume nearby companion stars.

Oak Ridge TN (SPX) May 25, 2023 - Led by Kelly Chipps of the Department of Energys Oak Ridge National Laboratory, scientists working in the lab have produced a signature nuclear reaction that occurs on the surface of a neutron star

Scientists working in the lab have produced a signature nuclear reaction that occurs on the surface of a neutron star gobbling mass from a companion star. Their achievement improves understanding of stellar processes generating diverse nuclear isotopes.

Gene therapy! The next big thing. But what does it all mean? What are the ethics? Where did it even come from? What in the sweet hell is CRISPR? This week we hop in the time travel machine and head all the way back to that time the fellas are joined by Dr. Graham Dellaire, Professor of Pathology at Dal & Principle Investigator at the Dellaire Lab of Nuclear Structure and Cancer Biology. He drops some fascinating knowledge on all things gene therapy & gene editing! This episode is a nerd&...

He shared the 1975 Nobel Prize in Physics for discoveries of forces that can distort the shape of an atomic nucleus, with implications for human-made nuclear fission.

Physicists Just Found The Lightest Known Form of Uranium, And It Has Unique Behaviors MARA JOHNSON-GROH, LIVE SCIENCE 4 MAY 2021 Scientists have discovered a new type of uranium that is the lightest ever known. The discovery could reveal more about a weird alpha particle that gets ejected from certain radioactive elements as they decay.   The newfound uranium, called uranium-214, is an isotope, or a variant of the element, with 30 more neutrons than protons, one fewer neutron than the nex...
