Hydrogen has three isotopes: protium, deuterium, and tritium. These isotopes play a crucial role in hydrogen fuel production, nuclear fusion, and the development of advanced pharmaceuticals ...
The lightest of all elements, hydrogen, is in great demand due to its promising role as a sustainable resource in the energy transition. A team from Leipzig University and TU Dresden, as part of ...
Tritium is a hydrogen isotope that shares a lot of characteristics with its two siblings: 1 H (protium) and 2 H (deuterium), with the main distinction being that tritium (3 H) is not a stable ...
Thus, the isotopic differences in the strength of hydrogen bonds are determined by a delicate balance between the competing two deuteration effects (1) and (2), while those in hydrogen-bond length ...
One out of 6420 hydrogen atoms, on average, is a deuterium isotope. Deuterium isotopes are distributed in molecules that contain hydrogen, including, importantly, in all forms of water – also water in ...
Controlling the uniformity of hydrogen isotope density ratio in fusion plasma is a problem for realizing fusion energy. The researchers have reached a key understanding of the process to make the ...
