Summary: | More than 99% of the mass in the visible universe - the material that makes up ourselves, our planet, stars - is in the atomic nucleus. Although the matter has existed for billions of years, only over the past few decades have we had the tools and the knowledge necessary to get a basic understanding of the structure and dynamic of nuclei. Nuclear physicists around the world have made tremendous strides by initiating a broad range of key questions that can be best attacked with various experimental probes at different beam energies. Moreover, through these efforts, we have gained access to the origin of elements and the nucleosynthesis processes that were and still are shaping the world we are living in. |
