Maria Goeppert Mayer was a physicist at Argonne who developed the nuclear shell model theory, a pivotal discovery that won her a Nobel Prize in 1963. This year marks the 75 th anniversary of the ...

The accurate description of deformed atomic nuclei by orbital-free density functional theory has been a longstanding textbook challenge, due to the difficulty in accounting for quantum shell effects.

Summary: The M65 280mm Motorized Heavy Gun, known as “Atomic Annie,” was a Cold War-era nuclear cannon capable of firing a 15-kiloton nuclear shell. -Introduced in 1952, it was transported by two 4×4 ...
