RECENTLY, Sabatini et al. 1 reported the use of glutaric acid dialdehyde (glutaraldehyde) and other aldehydes as fixatives for electron microscopy. Excellent preservation of the submicroscopic ...

Read the paper: Imaging shapes of atomic nuclei in high-energy nuclear collisions Research into nuclear structure usually involves deducing the shape of a nucleus by exciting it to a higher energy ...

A quark is an elementary particle that makes up protons and neutrons within the atomic nucleus. There are six types (called "flavors"): up, down, charm, strange, top, and bottom. Quarks interact ...

Researchers at CERN have made a significant breakthrough in nuclear physics by uncovering strong evidence that Tin-100 (100 Sn) has a “doubly magic” nucleus, a property that confers ...

A pair of physicists from MIT and Jefferson Lab and an animator have created a new visualization of the atomic nucleaus. For the first time, the sizes, shapes and structures of nuclei in the quantum ...

Amoeboid cell types are fundamental to animal biology and broadly distributed across animal diversity, but their evolutionary origin is unclear. The closest living relatives of animals, the ...

Exposing these cells to insulin caused phosphate groups to be attached to the PTRF proteins inside the cells. This modification caused PTRF to move into the cell’s nucleus, where it increased the ...
