“This research helps reveal how nuclear matter behaves under extreme conditions, like those that existed just after the Big Bang. By making models of these collisions more accurate, we can better ...

An analysis by physicists of colliding protons is tackling the mystery of where protons get their intrinsic property known as spin. Along with neutrons, protons are housed inside an atom's nucleus.

Researchers have for the first time measured the speed of proton transfer through charged water, a fundamental chemical ...

The movement of protons through electrically charged water is one of the most fundamental processes in chemistry. It is evident in everything from eyesight to energy storage to rocket fuel — and ...
