"God does not play dice." This famous remark by Albert Einstein critiqued the probabilistic nature of quantum mechanics.

The interaction between an electron and a calcium-40 nucleus has been calculated from first principles for the first time. ... Previously, there were just too many protons and neutrons in a nucleus ...

More proceeds through the weak interactions, converting a neutron into a proton, electron, and an anti-electron neutrino. Before the neutrino was known or detected, it appeared that both energy ...

Collapsing stars might act as cosmic laboratories for discovering hidden neutrino interactions. Neutrinos are among the most puzzling particles in the universe. Nearly massless and incredibly elusive, ...

Researchers engineered a graphene-encased catalyst with ultra-low platinum use that delivers high-efficiency, ...

The electron beam was aimed at foils made from carbon, lead, aluminum, and iron, each with atoms of varying ratios of protons to neutrons. When an electron collides with a proton or neutron in an ...

Now, researchers have obtained the first direct observation of electron and muon neutrino interactions in the Teraelectronvolt range at CERN's Large Hadron Collider, using the FASER detector.

Proton—positive; electron—negative; neutron—no charge. The charge on the proton and electron are exactly the same size but opposite. The same number of protons and electrons exactly cancel one another ...
