β-Decay: A type of radioactive decay in which a beta particle (electron or positron) is emitted, commonly used to study neutrino properties in tritium decay.

Neutrinos are elementary particles that are predicted to be massless by the standard model of particle physics, yet their observed oscillations suggest that they do in fact have a mass, which is very ...

The research, supported by the Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare, shows that even an experiment with a clear mission in ...

Since the 1960s, we have known that these particles violate the so-called charge-parity (CP) symmetry. The antimatter counterpart behaves in a different way. It had long been suspected, with ...

Characteristics of emitted particles from a laser-produced tin plasma using a colloidal tin dioxide nano-particle jet target were investigated. By using double laser pulses, the EUV conversion ...

The emitted γ-rays can be scattered by the material of interest and the material of the container and any internal or external hardware such as stirrers, blades or motors. This can result in spurious ...

New particle formation (NPF) is a major source of atmospheric aerosol particles, significantly influencing particle number concentrations in urban environments. High condensation and coagulation sinks ...
