Scientists believe a 13-million-year-old snapping turtle fossil on display at the museum and art gallery of the northern territory is a previously unknown species. It's thought the giant carnivorous ...
This video is an interactive lesson in calculating an atom’s mass and atomic number. Atoms consist of a nucleus containing protons and neutrons, surrounded by electrons in shells. The numbers of ...

IN 1940, we prepared the isotope of mass 211 of element 85 by bombarding bismuth with alpha particles accelerated in the 60-in. cyclotron of the Radiation Laboratory of the University of California 1.
IN 1937, Perrier and Segrè showed that radioactive isotopes of element 43 could be formed by neutron or deuteron bombardment of molybdenum 1. Several chemical properties of element 43 were ...
As they studied atomic disintegration, they kept seeing that the atomic number (number of protons in the nucleus, equivalent to the positive charge of the atom) was less than the atomic mass ...
