Nuclear Physicists Discover New Uranium Isotope

Nuclear physicists associated with different institutions in Japan and their colleague from South Korea have found a new uranium isotope. In the past few decades, nuclear physicists have discovered that finding the properties of isotopes rich in neutrons is challenging, because of the problems caused by their creation. This has prompted some studies to focus on finding new ways to synthesize the isotopes under laboratory conditions. For this recent study, the team of researchers used a new approach that involved using an isotope separation system to fire a sample nuclei of uranium-238 at a sample nuclei of platinum-198. These interactions…
