Behaviour Interactive, the largest Canadian gaming studio, today announced the appointments of Stephanie Marchand to the position of Chief Operating Officer and Nathan Sellyn to the position of Deputy ...

Every Saturday, we’re going deep on one song we’ve never reviewed before. This week, we begin with Björk’s magical, ineffable, totally disarming debut single. Save this story Save this story The story ...

In this video, we explore the fundamental question: Why does changing just one proton in the nucleus of an atom create a different element? The number of protons in an atomic nucleus determines the ...

For the first time, researchers have measured the speed at which protons move through charged water molecules, shedding light on one of the most fundamental chemical reactions. Researchers at Yale ...

The movement of protons through electrically charged water is one of the most fundamental processes in chemistry. It is evident in everything from eyesight to energy storage to rocket fuel — and ...

Mirror magic: The "cores" of the exotic nuclei oxygen-22 and silicon-22 both resemble that of oxygen-16, with eight protons and eight neutrons. The neutron-rich oxygen isotope contains an additional ...

Scientists have successfully relocated protons outside of an antimatter laboratory with the help of an autonomous, open Penning trap. This breakthrough marks a significant step toward transporting ...

Protons are the basis of bioenergetics. The ability to move them through biological systems is essential for life. A new study in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences shows for the first ...

There’s a pencil lying on my desk right now. It’s not much to look at, but what if I could zoom way in and see the protons and other itty-bitty stuff inside it? My friend Ryan Corbin told me it would ...
