The process: The study focuses on a radiation-induced process by which weakly bound matter can fall apart, the so-called electron-transfer-mediated decay (ETMD). Given predictions that it efficiently ...
Physicists have modelled a quantum mechanism that can result in the end of the universe through the mechanism of false vacuum ...
In contrast to classical physics, multi-particle decay is a phenomenon unique to the quantum world. Magnesium-18 exemplifies such an exotic system, positioned far from the dripline. Spitting out ...
Physicists have successfully simulated false vacuum decay, a quantum process theorized to be capable ...
Neutrinoless double-β decay is possible only if neutrinos have mass, a condition that has now been confirmed, thanks to the detection of neutrino oscillations. The race is therefore on to find ...
Bacterial mRNAs begin with a triphosphate on the first transcribed nucleotide, but RNase E, the endonuclease long thought to initiate mRNA decay in Escherichia coli, only works well on RNA with a ...
