Example nuclear reactions include radioactive decay, fission, the break-up of a nucleus, and fusion, the merging of nuclei. In systematic studies of radioactive isotopes, the so-called islands of ...
The most of the elements present in the Universe are formed through nuclear fusions among charged nuclei and nuclear/neutron captures on nuclides in stellar cores; the fusion energies are well below ...
It also came with an electroscope for measuring radiation levels, a spinthariscope for visualizing radioactive decay on a screen ... to create a nuclear chain reaction (in principle, not in ...
