WASHINGTON, Sept. 1 (TNSjou) -- The U.S. Department of Energy's Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory issued the following news release on Aug. 31, 2022:
The atomic nucleus is a busy place. Its constituent protons and neutrons occasionally collide, and briefly fly apart with high momentum before snapping back together like the two ends of a stretched rubber band. Using a new technique, physicists studying these energetic collisions in light nuclei found something surprising: pr . . .
