Finding Isotopes is relatively easy, although finding certain specific ones can be a bit challenging. To locate Isotopes in your area, you’ll want to scan (L3) and look for the red and white energy ...

On October 10, 2006, Ken Moody answered selected viewer questions about the ongoing quest to forge new chemical elements and the search for a so-called Island of Stability. Please note we are no ...

At a large, new facility on Michigan State University's campus, the boundaries of nuclear science are being taken further than they've ever gone before. And scientists from around the world are lining ...

Editor’s note: This series profiles five of the Seattle region’s “Uncommon Thinkers”: inventors, scientists, technologists and entrepreneurs transforming industries and driving positive change in the ...

Isotopes can be simply considered as the variants of an element with different neutrons number. But it’s the only difference in that makes them available for comparison and replacement applications.

THE elements 81 (thallium), 82 (lead), and 83 (bismuth) have both radioactive and inactive isotopes, whereas the elements 84–92 are only known in an active form. Several attempts have been made to ...

THE first Friday evening discourse of the new session at the Royal Institution was delivered on November 2 by Dr. F. W. Aston, who took as his subject “Elements and Isotopes”. That a chemical element ...
