The heaviest element yet found is one step closer to joining the periodic table. That’s thanks to an international team of scientists at the GSI Helmholtz Centre for Heavy Ion Research in Darmstadt, ...
On the periodic table, most elements have at least one stable form. But others have only unstable forms, all of which decay by emitting radiation and transforming into different elements until ...
Structure of superheavy elements in 'island of stability': Nucleus 256Rf can now be studied in depth
One of the most sought-after goals in nuclear physics is an understanding of the structure of superheavy elements in the so-called "island of stability". These nuclei contain a large number of protons ...
