Single fission experiment maps excess gamma rays from more than a dozen unstable nuclei

Physicists have successfully mapped excess gamma-ray emissions from over a dozen unstable nuclei in a single fission experiment. This research provides new insights into the fundamental fission process of heavy atomic nuclei.
Why it matters
Advancing the understanding of nuclear fission is critical for nuclear physics research and potential future energy applications.
