Researchers have demonstrated that by using argon plasma, metal atoms can be dispersed and guided to desired positions. This ...

For rare spherical nuclei, this waviness just happens to cancel out. But scientists don't yet understand the reason — or if there even is one — why some of these deformed shapes are much more ...

Researchers at Michigan State University’s Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) have made a fascinating discovery: a tiny ...

A new paper in Energies, authored by Mansoor J. Alshehri of King Saud University in Saudi Arabia, has investigated the encapsulation of lithium atoms in different-sized spherical fullerenes.

The team takes buckminsterfullerene molecules – spherical cages formed of 60 carbon atoms – with a single krypton atom trapped inside. These molecules are then sucked into a carbon nanotube by ...

Researchers have gained new insights into the unique chemical properties of spherical molecules composed entirely of carbon atoms, called fullerenes. They did it by making flat fragments of the ...

In 2015 the fusion reactor at the Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory got a spherical upgrade for an energy-efficiency boost. ... to force atoms together and make said reaction happen, ...

For the First Time, Scientists Caught Atoms Freely Interacting in Space—and It Was Stunning We had to freeze ’em to see ’em. By Elizabeth Rayne Published: May 09, 2025 9:30 AM EDT ...

Atoms within the ball of iron in Earth's inner core may move around more than previously thought, ... The inner core is a massive spherical lump of metal, predominantly iron, ...

SMART (Small Aspect Ratio Tokamak), the world's only fusion reactor with 'negative triangularity' constructed at the University of Sevilla in Spain, produced its first plasma.
