A breakthrough has been reported in particle physics, focusing on hypernuclei—rare atomic systems that form through the inclusion of hyperons, particles containing at least one “strange” quark. Unlike the ordinary nuclei of atoms made of protons and neutrons, hypernuclei exhibit unique properties that may offer insights into subatomic forces and the extreme conditions present in […]
A puzzling ‘zebra’ pattern in high-frequency radio waves emitted by the Crab Nebula’s pulsar might finally have an explanation, according to new research by Mikhail Medvedev, Professor of Physics and Astronomy at the University of Kansas. This unique pattern, characterized by unusual frequency-based band spacing, has intrigued astrophysicists since its discovery in 2007. Medvedev’s findings, […]
