"This allows atomic nuclei to form and be stable -- which means matter, as we interact with it in the universe, can exist."

The proposed mechanism depends on what happens when protons inside colliding nuclei reach enormous energies.

From Science Daily ● Aug. 16, 2026

At ultrarelativistic energies, the nuclei pass through each other so quickly that they pull the newly created plasma into brief, intense acceleration pulses.

Scientists measure how often nuclei emit gamma rays at different energies using a quantity known as the gamma-ray strength function.

It is a radiating plasma in which the high temperature has stripped some of the electrons from their nuclei.

She saw him start a dozen nucleuses of fires; saw them advance till they halted at the edge of the burned ground, beyond the wagon, so that it stood safe in a vast black island.

"So far I have done nothing but nucleuses," said Olive, as they sat down.

From The Captain's Toll-Gate by Frank Richard Stockton

Hall, Price, and Kelsey headed in with straggling wagons to form the nucleuses of their columns; but the morning wore on and the Missourians, now under Woodhull, had not yet broken park.
