Recent experiments at CERN have shed new light on the nuclear properties of atomic nuclei (i.e., the central regions of atoms accounting for most of their mass). A key objective of recent research into atomic nuclei has been to better understand the properties of Tin-100 (100Sn), a rare isotope with 50 protons and 50 neutrons. […]

For years, the The University of Edinburgh’s Anatomical Museum has called her “Hilda,” and kept her skull for a very important and historical reason: She lived to the age of 60, nearly twice the average life expectancy when she died some 2,000 years ago.
That’s where Karen Fleming, a student […]
