On this day, chemists discovered a substance 900 times more radioactive than uranium. Their research led to unprecedented medical breakthroughs and worldwide fame — but it would also kill one of them.

Medical physics is one of the lesser-known career paths that offers the chance to see the practical application of physics in ...

Using lasers with precisely tuned frequency, λ, physicists control rotational states of radium monofluoride molecules and excite specific rotational levels, characterized by the quantum number, J.

The research project “BARB – Biomedical Applications of Radioactive Ion Beams” funded by a prestigious ERC Advanced Grant to Professor Marco Durante, head of the Biophysics Department at the GSI ...

In the quest for ultra-precise timekeeping, scientists have turned to nuclear clocks. Unlike optical atomic clocks—which rely on electronic transitions—nuclear clocks utilize the energy transitions in ...

OncoRay is receiving around 1.1 million euros in funding from the Federal Ministry of Research, Technology and Space under the program “Nuclear Safety and Radiation Research” for the joint project ...
