Photo: Niels Bohr's research notes for his new atomic theory Rutherford's find came from a very strange experience. Everyone at that time imagined the atom as a "plum pudding." That is, it was roughly ...

Researchers uncovered how soft regions in amorphous silicon mix order and disorder, offering new insights for designing ...

Plutonium has captured the attention of scientists since its discovery in the early 1940s. This enigmatic element has an important role to play in emerging energy technologies like nuclear batteries ...

Scientists have explored on an atomic level how changes in iron content influence the micro-structure of samarium-cobalt based permanent magnets. In the long run, they could contribute to the ...

A research team led by Oak Ridge National Laboratory has developed a new method to uncover the atomic origins of unusual material behavior. This approach uses Bayesian deep learning, a form of ...

In the last 40 years, scientists have perfected ways to determine the knot-like structures of enzymes, but they’ve been stumped trying to translate the structure of enzymes into an understanding of ...
