In 1938, we discovered just how much of a misnomer that one tiny word is when physicists Otto Hahn, Lise Meitner, and Fritz Strassmann showed how uranium nuclei split in two when shot with neutrons.

Astronomers have witnessed the titanic collision between two neutron stars that resulted in the birth of the smallest black hole ever seen and forged precious metals like gold, silver, and uranium.

During the contraction of this core, inverse β reactions take place and transform most of the nuclei and electrons into neutrons. If the mass of the neutron star does not exceed a critical value ...

Scientists think it's possible that shrouds of hypothetical particles called "axions" could surround extreme, dead stars called "neutron stars." If true, this could bring us one step closer to ...

Here’s how it works. iZotope has released the latest version of its flagship mixing suite, Neutron 5, bringing three new plugins and a host of upgrades and enhancements to this already-powerful ...

Rocket Lab CEO Sir Peter Beck shares how Neutron’s progress and why some investors are doubting his company’s ability to execute. Video / Corey Fleming Rocket Lab’s initial Neutron rocket ...

Even now, we are moving some of the calculations to Frontier so we can look further. - Aurel Bulgac, physics professor at the University of Washington Second, the proton neck completes its rupture ...

Axions, hypothetical particles linked to dark matter, may form observable clouds around neutron stars, offering a novel way to detect dark matter through the light they might emit. Credit: ...

The company is using this huge 90-ton machine to 3D-print its Neutron rocket. This giant 3D printer can make carbon fiber layers at incredible speeds, building complex structures with unmatched ...

For many years, scientists believed that fundamental particles like protons and neutrons that form an atomic nucleus, can’t be divided further into smaller units. However, in the following years ...

In the nucleus, neutrons can be stable. Free neutrons, however, decay after a short while. Credit: Oliver Diekmann, TU Wien How long do neutrons live? Different measurement results contradict each ...
