In a study published in the American Physical Society, the superallowed α decay chain 108Xe-104Te-100Sn into the self-conjugate doubly magic 100Sn nucleus was observed.
Argonne scientists have developed a new sputtering technique for superconducting nitride thin films for device applications. It opens new avenues in fields of nuclear and particle physics.
A new study, co-led by Argonne, shows that effects on the energies of excitation in nuclei can depend on how tightly the last neutron or proton is bound.
