Physicists have used a new optical centrifuge to control the rotation of molecules suspended in liquid helium nano-droplets, ...
Magnetic rotation and antimagnetic rotation represent distinct mechanisms by which atomic nuclei generate angular momentum in systems that exhibit little or no permanent quadrupole deformation. In ...
The study of chiral nuclear physics explores the phenomenon of handedness that arises from the interplay between triaxial deformation and the angular momentum of valence nucleons. In such systems, the ...
The observed near flatness of galactic rotation curves has long been interpreted as evidence for large amounts of non-baryonic dark matter. Here we show that this phenom ...
