The lab creates unusual atomic nuclei and measures them precisely to probe the strong force between nucleons.
AboutAbout the lab
Understanding the strong force through unusual atomic nuclei
The Nuclear Physics Group aims to understand the strong force (the strong interaction) acting between nucleons by creating atomic nuclei that differ from ordinary ones and precisely measuring their states.
Using nuclear reactions, the group experimentally studies finite many-body systems of hadrons, from the level of nucleons down to the level of quarks.
The group is divided into three subgroups: Strangeness Nuclear Physics, Exotic Nuclear Physics, and Short-Lived Nuclei Physics.
Key terms
- Nucleon
- A collective term for protons and neutrons, which make up atomic nuclei
- Hadron
- A collective term for particles formed when quarks are bound together by the strong force. Protons and neutrons are also hadrons
- Strong interaction
- The force acting between nucleons and between quarks. It binds nucleons together inside atomic nuclei
ResearchResearch themes
A central challenge of modern nuclear physics is to create nuclei that differ from ordinary ones, measure their states precisely, and thereby understand the interaction between nucleons (the strong force). Using nuclear reactions from the MeV to the GeV range, the lab conducts experimental studies of finite many-body systems of hadrons bound by the strong interaction.
