Back when it was theorized, scientists weren’t sure they would ever detect the neutrino; now they’re searching for a version of the particle that could be even more elusive. In Germany in 1930, a ...

Scientists have gained insights into the weak nuclear force from new, more sensitive studies of the beta decays of the 'mirror' nuclei lithium-8 and boron-8. The weak nuclear force drives the process ...

Researchers in Finland have made a significant breakthrough that could unravel one of the biggest mysteries in physics by reaching billionth-level precision in measuring nuclear decay energies. Led by ...
