For the first time, scientists have directly measured a weak r-process reaction using a radioactive ion beam, shedding light ...

A recent study published in Advanced Energy and Sustainability Research examined the fabrication of nanoporous helium-silicon thin films using a plasma-assisted co-deposition process, offering a novel ...

Iron can form compounds with helium at pressures as low as 5GPa – about 50,000 atmospheres – researchers in Japan report.

These results suggest that similar reactions between helium and iron may have occurred within Earth’s core shortly after its formation, trapping much of the primordial helium-3 in the material that ...

The discovery that inert helium can form bonds with iron may reshape our understanding of Earth’s history. Researchers from ...

Physicists have measured a nuclear reaction that can occur in neutron star collisions, providing direct experimental data for ...

This method likely prevented the escape of helium during the measurement phase, Hirose said in a statement. This artificially colored image made using a technique called secondary ion mass ...

offering a novel approach for lithium-ion battery anodes. By creating a high-density helium plasma environment, researchers achieved controlled implantation of helium atoms into silicon layers ...
