New AI Algorithm Analyzes Neutron Star Collisions 3,600x Faster Than Traditional Methods

A machine learning method has the potential to revolutionize multi-messenger astronomy. Detecting binary neutron star mergers is a top priority for astronomers. These rare collisions between dense stellar remnants produce gravitational waves followed by bursts of light, offering a unique opportunity to study matter and gravity under some of the most extreme conditions in the [...]

Physicists capture historic first look at the internal structure of a neutron

In the world of nuclear physics, protons often take the spotlight. But now, for the first time, the neutron has stepped into it. A recent experiment using the U.S. Department of Energy’s Jefferson Lab has revealed the inner structure of the neutron in ways never seen before. This milestone gives scientists a new tool to unlock one of physics’ biggest puzzles: how the spin of particles like protons and neutrons—called nucleons—really works. Resea…
