A video clip filmed during the US-Iran talks in Switzerland has been circulating on social media, sparking claims that the US vice president was snubbed by Qatar’s prime minister. However, the footage does not tell the whole story.
At around 10 kilometers across, Comet 10P/Tempel 2 is roughly the same size as the asteroid linked to the extinction of the dinosaurs. We’re about to get a great (and safe) look at it.
Plutonium is one of the most complex elements in the periodic table. First synthesized and isolated in 1940 by scientists at the University of California, Berkeley, plutonium has been studied closely for more than eight decades. It’s most often associated with its role in nuclear security, but it’s also vital to nuclear power, where it…
Researchers at the Physical Research Laboratory have performed calculations on sodium (Na) to resolve discrepancies between previous theoretical predictions and experimental data regarding hyperfine structure constants. Their work utilizes relativistic coupled-cluster theory, including triple excitations, to better understand electron correlation and its impact on the nuclear region of the atom.
