There may be an ultraheavy explanation for the mystery surrounding the origins of the highest-energy particles ever observed.

In work conducted at both UC Santa Barbara and the Physics of Life Excellence Cluster of TU Dresden, biophysicist Otger Campàs and his research group have found that cell nuclei control the ...

A major physics experiment has uncovered evidence for a strange new form of matter, where a fleeting particle gets trapped ...

RNA technology is regarded as one of the newest frontiers in medicine, but in fact a primordial innovator got there way ...

Most cells typically have one nucleus that holds its genomic DNA. Muscle fibers, however, are large, individual cells that contain many nuclei. Reporting in Nature Communications, scientists have used ...

How are galaxies born, and what holds them together? Astronomers assume that dark matter plays an essential role. However, as yet it has not been possible to prove directly that dark matter exists. A ...

Powered by supermassive black holes swallowing matter in the centers of galaxies, active galactic nuclei are the most powerful compact steady sources of energy in the universe. The brightest active ...

Isolating nuclei is a crucial step for single nuclear RNA-sequencing and ATAC-sequencing workflows. Making sure that non-clustered, debris-free samples are produced is vital to effective library ...

A now-fixed vulnerability in the open-source vulnerability scanner Nuclei could potentially allow attackers to bypass signature verification while sneaking malicious code into templates that execute ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. A new measurement of the strong nuclear force, which binds protons and neutrons together, confirms previous hints of an uncomfortable ...
