Researchers have reported new experimental results addressing the origin of rare proton-rich isotopes heavier than iron, called p-nuclei. Led by Artemis Tsantiri, then-graduate student at the Facility ...

PORTLAND, Ore. — You might have thought that scientists had already cataloged the 118 natural elements–from hydrogen to silicon to uranium–and their various isotopes. Unfortunately, only the first ...

In the rapidly evolving landscape of nuclear medicine, the integration of diagnostics and therapeutics - known as theranostics - represents a groundbreaking shift in how we approach the treatment of ...

Plants need phosphorus, an essential nutrient, to grow. This nutrient is present in fertilizers and applied to crops to increase their yields. One downside of too much phosphorus in this agricultural ...

There is technology being perfected to make particle accelerators 100-1000 times lower cost. This would enable production of nuclear material for space propulsion that could reach up to 0.5% of light ...
