New Reactions May Unlock Long-Lasting Superheavy Nuclei with Distinct Properties

Energy-daily.com 

Sydney, Australia (SPX) Sep 11, 2024 - A group of researchers has made critical advancements in the quest to form long-lived superheavy nuclei. These "double magic" nuclei, featuring specific numbers of protons and neutrons that form an unusually stable structure, exhibit high resistance to decay. The findings could enhance the understanding of atomic forces and potentially lead to the creation of materials with unprecedented properties. This work brings scientists closer to the so-called "Island... Читать дальше...
