“This research helps reveal how nuclear matter behaves under extreme conditions, like those that existed just after the Big ...

A team of physicists has embarked on a journey where few others have gone: into the glue that binds atomic nuclei. The resultant measurement, which was extracted from experimental data taken at the ...

A researcher Heikki Mäntysaari from the University of Jyväskylä (Finland), has been part of an international research group ...

According to theoretical predictions, within a millionth of a second after the Big Bang, nucleons had not yet formed, and matter existed as a hot, dense "soup" composed of freely moving quarks and ...

A new analysis of data from the PHENIX experiment at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) reveals fresh evidence that collisions of even very small nuclei with large ones might create tiny ...
