"polarized light is split into different paths by the very strong magnetic fields surrounding the gold nuclei. “It’s not just proving the Breit-Wheeler process... magnetic field around highly-charged nuclei as well as better understand the physics of atomic nuclei. What the nucleus looks like at high energies is still very much unanswered... critical for the next-generation BNL’s Electron-Ion Collider"
