PRISMA+ scientists propose exotic low-mass fields as new messengers of astrophysical events

In the context of an international network funded by the European Union, scientists at Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (JGU) and GSI Helmholtzzentrum für Schwerionenforschung (GSI) are participating in the education of young postgraduate students in the fields of nuclear and atomic physics and nuclear chemistry.

Physicist of the Helmholtz Institute Mainz honored for groundbreaking work in the precision spectroscopy of atoms and molecules

Gaining a better understanding of the limiting factors for the existence of stable, superheavy elements is a decade-old quest of chemistry and physics. Superheavy elements, as are called the chemical elements with atomic numbers greater than 103, do not occur in nature and are produced artificially with particle accelerators. They vanish within…

Virtual MITP Workshop

Measurements in thorium-229 take a step towards the direct laser excitation of an atomic nucleus in this unique isotope

The cooperation of world-leading experimentalists and theoreticians in the field of strangeness nuclear physics with experts of the neutron star community in astrophysics within the networking activity THEIA of the STRONG-2020 project will allow to critically assess the status of our present understanding, to determine the impact of terrestrial…

New approaches to promote the use of nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy for analysis in chemistry, biology, and medicine

Canadian Radio Feature on HIM research!

The successful proposal of Dionysis Antypas aims to create a novel platform for fundamental tests in nuclear and particle physics based on detecting isotopic variation of parity violation in atomic nuclei. The European Research Council (ERC) will support the new project "YbFUN" – where Yb stands for the rare earth metal ytterbium – with an ERC…
