For decades, scientists believed that lead-208, a "doubly magic" and highly stable atomic nucleus, was perfectly spherical.

A team of researchers from the University of Ottawa has made significant strides in understanding the ionization of atoms and ...

More than 75 years after its initial discovery, scientists have created an organometallic molecule containing the ...

Cosmic origins: Beryllium-10 is produced in the upper atmosphere and eventually incorporated into ferromanganese crusts in the deep ocean. Around 10 million years ago, the amount deposited in these ...

They were the world's first supermodels, after all. But if you’re wondering how to become a model nowadays, a lot has changed since the ’90s—not least the introduction of the internet and ...

But even if there’s a tiny bit of sleight-of-hand in the reporting structure to get the headline, the Tesla Model Y is still an absolute powerhouse when it comes to global sales. And it’s been ...

A team of researchers describe neutrinos in a new paper as “the least understood fundamental particles of nature”, but have also helped change that by using radioactive beryllium embedded in ...

A team of researchers has found an unusual spike in beryllium-10 levels in the Pacific seabed ... Radionuclides are types of atomic nuclei (isotopes) that decay into other elements over time. They are ...

Analyzing several thin layers of seafloor crust, scientists in Germany have identified a sudden surge in the radioactive isotope Beryllium-10 sometime between 9–12 million years ago. The beryllium-10 ...

Russia has denied any responsibility for the attack. The head of the UN-backed international atomic energy watchdog, IAEA – which has a team based at the former Soviet nuclear site in Ukraine – issued ...
