The picture shows a close-up of one carbon atom. A hydrogen atom has one proton as the nucleus and one electron in the region outside the nucleus. The electron and proton are attracted to each other.

The development of laser–plasma accelerators began in the early 1980s, inspired by the pioneering work of Tajima and Dawson 1. Key to their operation is the fact that unlike the superconducting ...

In recent years, there have been attempts to describe the inside of a proton using quantum information tools, with partial ...

A team of engineers and physicists affiliated with a host of institutions across Japan, working at the Japan Proton ...

When two hydrogen atoms get close enough, the electron from each atom feels an attraction from the proton in the other atom's nucleus. This attraction pulls the atoms together. The electrons end up ...

This measurement identified the main source of mass created by gluons as the core area of the proton. For many years, exact measurements of the proton's electric charge response have allowed ...

Particle accelerators produce and accelerate beams of charged particles, such as electrons, protons and ions ... particles and speed them up by applying a static or oscillating electric field; (3) A ...
