A never-before-seen form of Oxygen observed for the first time
Physical systems under extreme conditions can be studied to learn how they are organized and structured. Neutron-rich isotopes, exceptionally light ones with neutron-to-proton ratios markedly different from stable nuclei, offer rigorous tests of contemporary nuclear structure theories in nuclear physics. These isotopes are extremely transient resonances that decay spontaneously through neutron emission. The first observation
Never-before-seen volcanic magma chamber discovered deep under Mediterranean, near Santorini
