For the first time, researchers have realized clocks based on transitions within atomic nuclei ⚛️! Two independent teams of researchers have realized working #nuclear clocks based on transitions of nuclei of Thorium-229. Discover the possibilities here: https://ow.ly/Xzjk50ZW55B #NuclearPhysics

Machine learning in high-energy nuclear physics is shifting from pattern recognition toward physics-integrated workflows, including Bayesian QCD property extraction, heavy-ion equation-of-state inference,…

Explore how Higgs-field changes affect weak and nuclear reactions in BBN. Constraints depend on resonance assumptions, helium data and stellar lithium corrections. This is not a detection of change.

🔬 For 25 years, physicists had fully identified just ONE nucleus holding two Lambda particles.

Now RIKEN has a second. AI scanned microscope images of film with ~1M particle tracks per cm². AI narrowed it down; humans made the call.

Technical supplement to Episode 9. #3

What does it take to hold a star for a fraction of a second?

Inertial confinement, target gain versus wall-plug reality, and engineering wall that still separates ignition from a power plant.

Before anyone knew about nuclear fission, Szilárd recognized that nuclear reactions could potentially multiply themselves. That idea became one of the foundations of the nuclear age.

Tord Ekelöf was born on September 12, 1945, ten days after Japan formally surrendered and World War II came to an end. Neutral Sweden looked on as atomic physics turned into a global power play. #History #Sweden #NuclearPhysics #AtomicAge
