For the first time, scientists observe a new and rare decay mode where oxygen-13 breaks into three helium nuclei and a proton following beta decay. Scientists have previously observed interesting ...

The detector array consists of plastic scintillator detectors, quadrant silicon detectors (QSD), double-sided silicon detectors (DSSD) and high-purity germanium (HPGe) detectors. Exotic nuclei near ...

Scientists have discovered an ultra-rare particle decay process, opening a new path to find physics beyond our understanding of how the building blocks of matter interact. Scientists at CERN have ...

Researchers have visualized atoms in motion just before a radiation-driven decay process occurs, revealing a surprisingly ...

Researchers at South Dakota Mines have completed the first measurement of a rare particle interaction that could help ...

If dark matter particles decay, then scientists could hunt for signs of this process, including X-ray or gamma-ray radiation or even emitted "ghost particle" neutrinos, in vast clusters of galaxies.

"WIMPs are still the leading candidate for dark matter, but billions of dollars of experiments have been done, only getting stronger and stronger upper limits, so alternative scenarios have to be ...
