Yet little is known about Chadwick when compared to his peers, whose names read like a who's who of school science lessons. The shy but steely scientist is credited with discovering the neutron ...

Different neutron states could explain why different experiments produce different figures for how long neutrons survive ...

Scientists carry out first space-based measurement of neutron lifetime Jun 11, 2020 Experiment finds evidence for a long-sought particle comprising four neutrons ...

It's not science fiction: Scientists have discovered a neutron star that spins faster than any blender humans have ever made.

As ISIS – the UK’s muon and neutron source – turns 40, Rosie de Laune and colleagues from ISIS explore the past, present and future of neutron scattering ...

This view of the atomic nucleus changed when James Chadwick discovered the existence of the neutron in 1932, for which he won ...

Physicists have shown that extremely light particles known as axions may occur in large clouds around neutron stars. These axions could form an explanation for the elusive dark matter that ...

The latest achievement of Proton the Power Upgrade (PPU) project shows the US has all it takes to remain a neutron science leader.

Physicists have proposed that axions, theoretical particles that could explain dark matter, may accumulate in dense clouds ...

Scientists at ORNL used neutrons to see hydrogen atoms, flashing in green, ending a decades-long debate about an enzyme that could target aggressive cancers through inhibitor design. Disclaimer ...

Scientists think it's possible that shrouds of hypothetical particles called "axions" could surround extreme, dead stars called "neutron stars." If true, this could bring us one step closer to ...

ORNL scientists Victoria Drago and Andrey Kovalevsky used the MaNDi instrument at the Spallation Neutron Source to discover new details of an enzyme that can aid cancer drug design. Disclaimer ...
