I picked up Racing Green by Kit Chapman, which I really enjoyed! So when I was interested in picking up more nonfiction, ...
Researchers discovered rutherfordium-252, the shortest-lived superheavy nucleus, refining the "island of stability" map and ...
In an experiment conducted at the Berkeley National Laboratory (United States) with the participation of a team from the IPHC ...
Experimental observations of the half life of rutherfordium-252 demonstrate that its stability lies well within the limits required for full atoms to form ...
However, as the positively charged protons repel each other, nuclei with too many protons are at risk of splitting—a challenge in the production of new superheavy elements. Certain combinations ...
