Using a method called atomic spectroscopy, an international team of physicists has produced a new value for the charge radius of the particle, the nucleus of the helium-4 atom.
The trace of an particle obtained by the nuclear physicist Wolfhart Willimczik with his spark chamber specially made for particles.
The particle, the nucleus of the helium-4 (4He) atom, consists of two protons and two neutrons, tightly bound by the strong nuclear force.
It is one of the most-studied atomic nuclei and its…
