The basal ganglia, a group of midbrain nuclei that Nadim describes as the "brain's go-no-go system" for determining whether ...

A UNIGE team has discovered the physical properties that generate the grooves found on the noses of many mammals.

All of the cells settled down around the pillars, which caused their nuclei to curve. This caused openings to form in the nuclear membrane but not in the exterior cellular structure as witnessed ...

Researchers have introduced a model based on the Langevin equation that offers new insights into the formation of exotic nuclei. This development could enhance the ability to produce rare isotopes ...

The basal metabolic rate is responsible for up to 70% of the calories ... This causes the magnetic moments of the hydrogen nuclei to flip. After the pulse ends, the magnetic moments of the nuclei ...

A study using 7T QSM identifies microstructural changes in the brainstem of COVID-19 survivors, suggesting links to long-term ...

However as the number of protons increases, more neutrons are needed to keep the nucleus stable. For example lead, lead-206 has 82 protons and has 124 neutrons.

In both cases, energy is freed because the mass of the remaining nucleus is smaller than the mass of the reacting nuclei. The reason why opposite processes release energy can be understood by ...

The characteristic of stars, such as our sun, is that their gravity keeps the nuclei present on them so close and hot that a fusion process is triggered, producing a huge amount of energy. On earth, ...

increase the number of a particular type of brain cells that are formed very early in development (called basal progenitor ...
