Nuclear theorists demonstrate a new method for computing the strengths of subatomic interactions that include up to three particles.
Scientists find strong evidence for the long-predicted Breit-Wheeler effect—generating matter and antimatter from collisions of real photons.
Nuclear scientists devise an indirect method of measuring the speed of sound in matter created in heavy-ion collisions.
Measurements of particle “flow” and hot matter created in low-energy collisions provide key data in understanding nuclear phase transition.

A new machine learning system diagnoses particle accelerator component issues in real-time.
A result 20 years in the making: Most precise measurement yet of the lifetime of the charge-neutral pion that keeps protons and neutrons together.
Fluctuations in data from collisions of gold nuclei hint at a possible ‘critical point’ in how nuclei melt.
