Solar neutrinos are no longer the “stars” of neutrino research, but next-generation experiments characterizing these neutrinos may deepen our understanding of solar and neutrino physics.
New modeling explains the relatively high fusion reaction probabilities of halo nuclei, which are composed of a dense core surrounded by a “satellite” of one or two nucleons.
A design for a nanopump that uses an alternating electric field could allow researchers greater control over nanoscale fluid flows.
The first measurements from a newly built gamma-ray observatory have been analyzed for signs of the decay of heavy dark matter, putting a lower limit on the hypothetical particles’ lifetime.
