Nuclei in their lowest energy states (ground state) are composed of neutrons and protons. Two protons and two neutrons in a nucleus can cluster together to form alpha particles. When the nucleus gets ...

Theoretical calculations predict a complex excited state (0+) for helium-4 (4He) at the 20.21 MeV energy level. This state involves a coupling of three cluster configurations: hydrogen-3 and a proton, ...

In a comprehensive Genomic Press Viewpoint (review) article, researchers are shining a spotlight on a revolutionary approach to tackling neuroendocrine tumors (NETs), a rare but increasingly prevalent ...

Alpha Tau Medical pioneers localized alpha particle radiation for solid tumors, with its Alpha DaRT technology showing broad applicability and strong early efficacy. 2026 is pivotal for DRTS, with ...

BOMBARDMENT of stressed single crystals of cadmium by alpha-particles was found by Andrade 1 to cause a marked increase in the rate of glide under certain conditions. The crystals were stressed so as ...
