An innovative collaboration among scientists at Los Alamos National Laboratory, Fox Chase Cancer Center and the University of Tennessee has successfully applied neutron diffraction to create a ...

Understanding the origin of heavy elements on the periodic table is one of the most challenging open problems in all of physics. In the search for conditions suitable for these elements via ...

New research has enhanced scientists' understanding of how free neutrons decay into other particles. The work provides the first measurement of the energy spectrum of the photons that are released in ...

WE have used the 110-in. Harwell cyclotron 1 as a source of high-energy neutrons for total cross-section measurements in good geometry. An internal beryllium target 8.9 mm. thick was bombarded by ...
