When subatomic physics research meets clinical oncology [PDF]
Bulletin of the World Health Organization, 2012 New but costly forms of hadron therapy to treat certain cancers raise important questions about how much health systems can afford to pay, but for some cancers, including many child cancers, they are among the most promising treatments we have.

The PANDA Experiment at FAIR - Subatomic Physics with Antiprotons [PDF]
Proceedings of the 14th International Conference on Meson-Nucleon Physics and the Structure of the Nucleon (MENU2016), 2016 The non-perturbative nature of the strong interaction leads to spectacular phenomena, such as the formation of hadronic matter, color confinement, and the generation of the mass of visible matter.

Material Sight: A Sensorium for Fundamental Physics [PDF]
Artnodes, 2020 Often our attempts to connect to the spatial and temporal scales of fundamental physics - from the subatomic to the multiverse - provoke a form of perceptual vertigo, especially for non-scientists. When we approach ideas of paralysing abstraction through

Instabilities of heavy magnons in an anisotropic magnet
Nature Communications, 2023 The search for new elementary particles is one of the most basic pursuits in physics, spanning from subatomic physics to quantum materials. Magnons are the ubiquitous elementary quasiparticle to describe the excitations of fully-ordered magnetic systems.

The role of scientific research on nuclear radiation waste management and preserving environment [PDF]
E3S Web of Conferences, 2021 On the level of this article, we deal with nuclear radiation (and their residues), which is defined as a physical phenomenon and strong atomic activity that occurs in unstable atoms of elements.

Dynamical fermions, centre vortices, and emergent phenomena [PDF]
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2022 The non-trivial ground-state vacuum fields of QCD form the foundation of matter. Here we examine the centre vortices identified within the ground-state fields of lattice QCD.

Growth and characterization of thorium-doped calcium fluoride single crystals
Scientific Reports, 2023 We have grown $$^{232}$$ 232 Th:CaF $$_2$$ 2 and $$^{229}$$ 229 Th:CaF $$_2$$ 2 single crystals for investigations on the VUV laser-accessible first nuclear excited state of $$^{229}$$ 229 Th, with the aim of building a solid-state nuclear clock.
