I picked up Racing Green by Kit Chapman, which I really enjoyed! So when I was interested in picking up more nonfiction, Chapman's catalogue ...
Researchers may have found a way to create a new superheavy element, known as "element 120," which would be so hefty that it ...
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 ...
In an experiment conducted at the Berkeley National Laboratory (United States) with the participation of a team from the IPHC, scientists have for the first time produced livermorium-290 (Z=116), a ...
This reaction resulted in the formation of Nihonium, accompanied by the emission of one neutron. 2 Flerovium (Fl) is a superheavy element (SHE) with atomic number 114. Experimental studies have shown ...
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 ...
In the search for superheavy elements, element 112 was a stepping stone towards the 'islands of stability'. Sigurd Hofmann now relates the steps that led to its 'creation' and detection.
