Scientists in the United States have made an extremely precise measurements of unstable ruthenium ...

A novel apparatus at the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory has made extremely precise ...

Although polarized raman spectroscopy has been utilized by researchers globally for several years, this is the first time that it has been implemented for observing, measuring and tracing the ...

Whether in a smartphone or laptop, semiconductors form the basis of modern electronics and accompany us constantly in everyday life. The processes taking place inside these materials are the subject ...

Relativistic atomic structure and spectroscopy address the complex interplay of quantum mechanics and Einstein’s theory of relativity to describe the behaviour of electrons in atoms, particularly ...

Abstract: Nuclear science fundamentally explores the formation of protons and neutrons from elementary particles and the interactions between them. One successful model describing this is the nuclear ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — The same technology behind MRI images of injury or disease also powers nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, which is used to analyze biological molecules for research ...

Transitions between different electronic energy levels in elements occur at unique energies and intensities, giving each element a distinctive emission spectrum. When the energy of an incident photon ...

A new chart for highly charged ions (HCIs) has been proposed, aiming to replicate the conventional periodic table’s ...

Ultracold polar molecules provide a promising platform for quantum simulation and studying quantum systems with long-range dipolar interactions. These dipolar interactions can be mapped to spin ...

Prof. Raven joined the Smith College physics department in 2013. Since then, he has mentored over 70 undergraduate researchers, including 15 senior theses, and is passionate about creating research ...
