Magnetic rotation and antimagnetic rotation represent distinct mechanisms by which atomic nuclei generate angular momentum in systems that exhibit little or no permanent quadrupole deformation. In ...

The study of chiral nuclear physics explores the phenomenon of handedness that arises from the interplay between triaxial deformation and the angular momentum of valence nucleons. In such systems, the ...

Physicists have used a new optical centrifuge to control the rotation of molecules suspended in liquid helium nano-droplets, ...

Mechanics plays a fundamental role in cell biology. Cells navigate these mechanical forces to explore their environments and sense the behaviour of surrounding living cells. The physical ...
