Researchers have just created a new super-heavy isotope of seaborgium, called seaborgium-257. This type of unstable atom does not exist naturally on Earth. Seaborgium-257 lasts for ...

For nearly a century, scientists around the world have been searching for dark matter—an invisible substance believed to make ...

Researchers at Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden discovered a new phenomenon that changes what we know about ...

An international research team led by Forschungszentrum Jülich has succeeded in visualizing magnetism inside solids with unprecedented precision. Using a newly developed method, the scientists were ...

Hollow atoms are special atoms with multiple missing electrons in their inner shells, while their outer shells are still ...

Almost everything on Earth is made up of atoms, but where do these fundamental building blocks come from?

Until now, atoms have never been imaged interacting freely in space, but a new technique known as non-resolved microscopy has changed that. MIT physicists were able to successfully capture images ...

First Ever Image Of “Free Floating” Atoms Snapped By MIT Scientists Two light systems trap the atoms and snap their photo.

Sheets of bismuth, gallium, indium, tin and lead can now be made just a few atoms thick by crushing them at a high temperature and pressure between two sapphires ...

Atoms, those tiny constituents of matter, are invisible to the naked eye, but their interactions shape our reality. However, the notion of "contact" between them is much more complex than it seems.

Atoms In Your Body Probably Once Left The Galaxy The technology that would allow humans to leave the Milky Way is barely imaginable, but it seems the carbon and oxygen that give us life did it all ...

Scientists have demonstrated that atoms can exhibit wave-like behavior, challenging long-held assumptions that experiments of this nature were impossible and opening new doors in quantum physics.
