Remarkably, the rate of proton-proton fusion in the sun is not precisely understood, but it can be better predicted using the process of triton decay.
A University of Utah research team demonstrates that a low power university research reactor can produce terbium-161 at high purity from gadolinium-160.
Researchers explore the effects of radiation and harsh chemicals to optimize americium-241 production.
Researchers gain new insights into a strong bond between the isotope astatine-211 and common chemicals, creating new possibilities for cancer treatment.
Researchers imaged individual barium ions in dense xenon gas, offering a new path toward ultra-low-background searches for neutrinoless double beta decay.
