Do you know just 25 tonnes of helium-3 (a rare isotope of helium) would be enough to power the US for an entire year? However, Earth’s atmosphere receives only a small quantity of helium from ...
Groundwater is water stored beneath the Earth's surface in the spaces between rocks and sediments, collectively known as aquifers.
The isotopes are Thulium-182 ... For example, hydrogen always has one proton, helium always has two, and iron has 26. Hydrogen can't have two protons, and iron can't have 25; if they did, they ...
NASA has estimated that there are between 1 - 3 million tons of helium-3 on the moon’s surface, which could open a new ...

In an experiment performed at the Research Center for Nuclear Physics (RCNP) in Osaka in Japan, the existence of preformed helium nuclei at the surface of several tin isotopes could be identified in a ...
Recent studies have made significant advancements in understanding the hyperfine structure, tune-out frequencies, and the effects of QED in helium-like ions and lithium isotopes. One of the key ...
