Scientists have brought the stars 'down to Earth' by creating 5 new isotopes that could reveal how heavy elements like gold are created when neutron stars smash together.

Astronomers at Leiden University have detected rare isotopes of carbon and oxygen in our neighboring stars for the first time ...

Isotopes are pretty important for players during their journey through No Man's Sky's universe. Here's how to get some for your cargo.

These isotopes are essential for making targets that can be bombarded with accelerated beams of charged atomic nuclei, or ions, of lighter elements for the synthesis of transuranium and superheavy ...

At the center of this work are the first mass measurements of three extremely neutron-rich tin isotopes: tin-136, tin-137 and tin-138. The results are published in the journal Physical Review Letters.

Stable isotopes are non-radioactive forms of atoms. Although they do not emit radiation, their unique properties enable them to be used in a broad variety of applications, including water and soil ...

Aston, using his mass spectrograph, tried to discover a stable isotope of radon in the atmosphere, and Hahn made extensive researches to find an inactive isotope of radium. All these attempts failed.

Of the common elements, all but four, palladium, iridium, platinum and gold, have now been analysed and some 247 isotopes identified, a few by less direct optical methods.
