Physicists have long understood that protons and neutrons, which make up atomic nuclei, are composed of quarks bound by gluons. However, reproducing the properties of atomic nuclei using only these subatomic components has been a challenge. Now, researchers from the Institute of Nuclear Physics of the Polish Academy of Sciences in Cracow, working with the international nCTEQ collaboration, have

Paris, France (SPX) Oct 17, 2024
An international research team, including scientists from the CNRS, the European Southern Observatory, and Charles University, has traced the origins of 70% of known meteorite falls to three asteroid families in the main asteroid belt. These families - Karin, Koronis, and Massalia - were formed by collisions occurring 5.8, 7.5, and around 40 million years ago. The new findings, which have identi

A new search technique has allowed astronomers to target exoplanets that align with Earth and each other in search of radio signals that could indicate interplanetary communication. Penn State researchers, in collaboration with the SETI Institute, recently conducted a 28-hour search of the TRAPPIST-1 system using the Allen Telescope Array (ATA), marking the most extensive investigation of its ki
