Nature Physics: Charge radii of exotic potassium isotopes challenge nuclear structure theory

“In nuclear physics so-called magic number are such nuclear proton and/or neutron numbers, for which the nucleus is more stable compared to neighboring isotopes on the nuclear chart. Researchers in both experimental and theoretical nuclear physics from University of Jyväskylä, Finland, took part of international research team, which studied the nuclear charge radii of potassium...Continue reading

Dark matter avoids detection – Finnish scientists join a new serch project

As a joint European effort, the COSINUS experiment will be constructed 1400 meters deep below the Gran Sasso massif to trace the hidden side of the universe, dark matter. Finnish scientist will take part in the theoretical analysis of the measurements. Press release Italian Gran Sasso-vuoren alle 1400 metrin syvyyteen on päätetty rakentaa yhteiseurooppalainen COSINUS-koelaitteisto...Continue reading
