An international study published in the Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres has provided new insights into global ...

Hydrogen isotopes in animal organic tissues have been exploited successfully to trace migration (a large literature; see the volume Hobson and Wassenaar, 2019) and are being investigated for ...

The surprise discovery that one of the lightest elements in the Universe can bind to iron under high pressure to form iron ...

For decades, scientists have puzzled over traces of primordial helium—a rare isotope known as ³He—escaping from volcanic ...

In general, the lighter isotope of an element tends to be more abundant in nature – for example, 98.9% of the Earth’s carbon is 12 C, with 13 C making up the remaining 1.1%. Generally, stable isotope ...

For decades, noble gases like helium have been considered chemically inert, refusing to form stable bonds under normal conditions. But new research challenges this assumption, revealing that helium ...

Doubly magic nuclei are particularly stable against nuclear decay; 208 Pb is the heaviest known stable isotope of any element; as such, it's considered an important cornerstone of nuclear physics, and ...
