Researchers create a Little Big Bang: Bowling-pin-shaped nuclei shed new light on the Universe’s first moments20.8.2026 09:07:36 CEST | Københavns Universitet | Press release
Researchers from the University of Copenhagen have succeeded in recreating the primordial matter that filled the Universe shortly after the Big Bang – by smashing much smaller atomic nuclei together than previously thought possible. These microscopic Big Bangs could provide new insights into the Universe’s earliest moments while also helping researchers understand one of the fundamental questions in nuclear physics.
