Where does the periodic table of chemical elements end and which processes lead to the existence of heavy elements? Researchers report on experiments to come closer to an answer. They gained insight ...
University of Liverpool researchers are part of an international research collaboration that has shed light on what happens at the extremes of neutron and proton numbers, in search of where the ...
Some of the heaviest atoms in the universe barely exist long enough to be ...
By directing pulses of laser light at atoms, researchers can study how radioactive elements decay in a matter of seconds. The ...
An international team of scientists has shed light on the extreme ends of neutron and proton numbers. Their goal is to investigate the limits of the periodic table of chemical elements. How far can ...
Scientists have for the first time literally shed light on properties of the radioactive element fermium–a metal discovered some 50 years ago. Spectroscopy, or the measurement of the wavelengths of ...
