Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: Scientists at MIT discovered a method to create a kind of particle accelerator using a molecule of radium monofluoride. Once excited by lasers in a ...
Using lasers with precisely tuned frequency, λ, physicists control rotational states of radium monofluoride molecules and excite specific rotational levels, characterized by the quantum number, J.
This image depicts the radium atom’s pear-shaped nucleus of protons and neutrons in the center, surrounded by a cloud of electrons (yellow), and an electron (yellow ball with arrow) that has a ...
Physicists have studied a rare molecule to look at how magnetism is distributed within a radioactive nucleus for the first time. The rules of nature don’t, generally speaking, change. If you toss a ...
