May 2024 Solar Storm Triggers Unusual Radiation Belts, Raising Space Safety Concerns
A significant solar storm in May 2024 led to the creation of two temporary radiation belts, detected by the CIRBE satellite in June. One belt contained high-energy electrons, while the other was rich in protons, a rare occurrence. While the electron belt dissipated in three months, the proton-dominated belt remains, potentially affecting space miss...

Quantum Entanglement Detected Inside Protons for the First Time by Researchers
In a major development in quantum physics, researchers have discovered quantum entanglement inside protons, a breakthrough that was previously theorised but unproven. Using data from the Large Hadron Collider and advanced quantum information science, evidence of entanglement between quarks and gluons was found within the proton. This discovery chal...

Scientists Move Closer to Adding Element 120 to the Periodic Table with New Technique
Scientists are on the brink of a groundbreaking discovery that could expand the periodic table to include element 120. Currently, the periodic table comprises 118 elements, ranging from hydrogen with one proton to oganesson with 118. The quest to explore the frontiers of atomic physics has led researchers to develop a novel technique to create elem...

Scientists Take Major Step Toward Creating Heaviest Element Ever
At Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, scientists have achieved a significant milestone by creating livermorium with a novel titanium-based method. This success is seen as a precursor to synthesizing unbinilium, the heaviest element. The research highlights the importance of advancing techniques in element synthesis to explore new frontiers in a...

CERN’s Large Hadron Collider Set to Smash Protons Together at Unprecedented Energy Levels
The Large Hadron Collider will begin its third run today, as it begins to smash protons together at an unprecedented energy level of 13.6 trillion electronvolts. The world's largest and most powerful particle collider will run around the clock for four years after a three-year break for upgrades. The newly upgraded collider will look at the Higgs B...
