Helium-3 discovery in Minnesota is sparking big energy claims, but the science, rarity, and real-world limits matter more ...

Richard Feynman, a famous theoretical physicist who won the Nobel Prize, said that if he could pass on only one piece of scientific information to future generations, it would be that all things are ...

When theoretical physicists like myself say that we’re studying why the universe exists, we sound like philosophers. But new data collected by researchers using Japan’s Subaru telescope has revealed ...

POSITIVELY charged hydrogen atoms with velocities acquired by falling through 300 to 900 volts have been found to possess an unexpected range in helium and other gases. With helium pressures so high ...

Galactic cosmic rays (GCRs) are energetic particles traveling across the Galaxy as high-energy beams, and are a unique probe to explore the astrophysical particle accelerators and the interstellar ...

The methods previously described have been applied to a study of the elastic scattering of 4· 2 MeV protons by deuterium, helium, nitrogen, oxygen, neon, argon, chlorine and bromine. The results ...

If you watched the movie Moon, you remember Helium-3 as the substance Sam Bell was sending back to Earth, during his onerous three year tenure on the Sarang lunar base. Helium-3 is not a piece of ...

To most of the U.S. public the hydrogen bomb was still a direful novelty last week, but to scientists there was little new about it. Long before the discovery of uranium fission they had known that ...
