@atlasexperiment.bsky.socialATLAS gets an edge on nuclear structure 💥
The ATLAS Collaboration reports the first observation that nucleons near the edge of a nucleus have a different internal structure than those near its centre – offering a new piece in a long-standing puzzle in nuclear physics!

A major milestone has been reached in the construction of the @atlasexperiment.bsky.social Inner Tracker (ITk), with the installation of the first nine ‘petals’ of the ITk Strips Endcap at DESY in Germany.
@atlasexperiment.bsky.social🔬 Ever wondered what it’s like to visit ATLAS?
Tomorrow, join us for a LIVE virtual visit of the ATLAS Experiment at CERN! Explore the experiment from home, meet ATLAS scientists and ask your questions live.

@atlasexperiment.bsky.socialFor more than a decade, ATLAS scientists at #CERN have been bringing particle physics to communities worldwide through live Virtual Visits. 🌍
The programme is now the focus of ATLAS's first paper dedicated to science education, communication and outreach.
