Under t Hydrogen nuclei experiment sharpens view of quarks inside matter
The lightest element in the universe is helping nuclear physicists probe the inner structure of matter with new precision. At the U.S. Department of Energy's Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility, researchers have compared two isotopes of hydrogen to gain sharper insight into how quarks and gluons are arranged inside protons and neutrons.
Hydrogen sits at the top of the Periodic T
