Facility for Rare Isotope Beams

Recent experimental discoveries are reshaping how scientists view atomic nuclei. Traditionally, nuclei have been classified as either stable or unstable, but this binary distinction overlooks the wide range of nuclear...

Stability and instability, measurement, acceleration, fragmentation, and navigating mystery—these are shared themes in both nuclear science and dance. At first glance, these concepts might seem best understood in isolation, but...

Dean Lee, professor of physics at FRIB and in Michigan State University’s Department of Physics and Astronomy and Theoretical Nuclear Science Department Head at FRIB, was awarded the Outstanding Faculty...

Recently, a large research collaboration led by the GSI Helmholtz Centre for Heavy Ion Research in Germany united an international team of scientists to gain deeper insights into the role...

An international team of researchers led by scientists from the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) at Michigan State University (MSU) uncovered evidence that astrophysics models of massive stars and...
