The recent discovery of a stupendously powerful neutrino has left scientists scratching their heads. New research suggests it ...

This is the radiation produced when electrons and positron pairs decay ... Collisions between certain subatomic particles can ...

Detecting radiation is a fundamental necessity for national security, but doing so effectively and at a distance is a tall ...

Relatively dense, the hydrogen-laden H 2 O molecule can slow down radiation particles as they zip past. Plus, water is something that astronauts will have to bring lots of on deep space missions.

Uncover the surprising connection between Earth storms and space radiation through the effects of lightning on high-energy ...

Researchers have found a way to use tardigrade proteins to potentially revolutionize cancer treatment and space travel.

That's where radiation therapy can help. It uses high-energy particles to make tiny breaks in the DNA of cancer cells to destroy or damage them, so they can no longer make new copies. The aim is ...

Researchers said alpha particles are promising therapies that target cancer while minimizing the damage to nearby healthy tissues.

Radiation-resistant nanomaterials enhance durability in nuclear systems by mitigating damage, improving structural integrity, ...
