Hydrogen isotope separation and catalytic exchange processes represent a critical area of research in both energy and environmental science. These techniques focus on distinguishing isotopes of ...

The discovery of isotopes in the early 20 th century marked a key moment in the history of physics and led to a much more refined understanding of the atomic nucleus. Isotopes are ‘versions’ of a ...

Deuterium is a stable isotope of hydrogen, which, unlike “normal” hydrogen atoms, or protium, also contains a neutron. The isotope deuterium has one proton, one neutron and one electron. One out of ...

As part of the Hydrogen Isotopes 1,2,3H Research Training Group, a team from Leipzig University and TU Dresden has made a significant advancement in the effective and economical provision of isotopes, ...

Hydrogen isotope separation technologies play a pivotal role in energy production, nuclear safety and advanced research. These technologies aim to distinguish between remarkably similar isotopic ...

Tokyo, Japan – Although it is the smallest and lightest atom, hydrogen can have a big impact by infiltrating other materials and affecting their properties, such as superconductivity and ...

The reaction fuses two molecules of hydrogen isotopes to generate energy. The Department of Energy announced a scientific breakthrough in nuclear fusion this week, marking a major step toward ...

Like everything we see in the world, isotopes are a type of atom, the smallest unit of matter that retains all the chemical properties of an element. Isotopes are forms of a chemical element with ...

This story was updated April 4 at 12:24 p.m. EDT. Hydrogen is the most common element in the universe, but why is that? To answer this question, "we need to go back to the Big Bang," said May Nyman, a ...

Deuterium, a heavier but less abundant version of the hydrogen atom, has many practical applications. Unfortunately, producing deuterium and using it to protect silicon-based semiconductors requires a ...
