An unexpected radioactive discovery beneath the Pacific Ocean seabed may provide researchers with a new global geologic time ...

A team of researchers has found an unusual spike in beryllium-10 levels in the Pacific seabed, dating back 10 million years.

Australia's Open Pool Australian Lightwater (OPAL) research reactor has the potential to “make a real difference” in the effort to deal with the global shortage of radioactive isotopes used ...

As another plus, this carbon-14 is derived from graphite blocks, which are a byproduct of nuclear fission reactors. So, not ...

The carbon-14 diamond battery, is a groundbreaking discovery that could 5,700 years without ever needing to recharge.

An unknown 'bump' on a scientist's screen In this work, researchers determined two-neutron separation energies of the lanthanum isotopes and discovered a strong, local increase, a "bump," in the ...
