Neutral helium microscopy and atom optics constitute an innovative imaging paradigm that exploits low-energy, charge-neutral helium atoms to non-destructively investigate surface properties at the ...

There Aldo Antognini's team generates so-called muonic helium-3, in which the two electrons of the helium atom are replaced by an elementary particle called a muon. This allows the nuclear radius to ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. The Iron Range is sitting atop another massive extraction resource. Who will benefit? Illustration by Getty Images. BABBITT — When ...

Helium is the simplest element in the periodic table with more than one particle in its nucleus, yet state of the art theory and experiments on it don't add up. When you purchase through links on our ...

For the first time, researchers from the PRISMA + Cluster of Excellence have determined the charge radius of helium-3 and thus also the exact difference to the radius of helium-4. This precision ...

GOLDEN, Colorado — Interlune, a Seattle-based company of former Blue Origin technologists, has set its sights on the moon’s supply of Helium-3 — a rare heavy isotope deposited into lunar regolith by ...
