An international team of researchers has successfully produced an isotope of the superheavy element livermorium — a feat they say opens the door to discovering new elements. The experiments took place ...

A DIY science project exploring how beta backscattering can be used to identify different elements. The experiment demonstrates key physics principles in a simple and practical way. #science #physics ...

Violent explosions of massive, magnetized stars may forge most of the universe’s heavy elements, such as silver and uranium. The ancient star’s elements aren’t from the remnants of a neutron star ...

A new study led by the Department of Energy’s Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) has measured how long it takes for several kinds of exotic nuclei to decay. The paper, published ...

If you are tired of hearing that your children are bored, why not try doing some science experiments for kids?
