Researchers have analyzed ancient zeolite specimens collected from the edges of East Iceland to discover that zeolites separate calcium isotopes in a wholly unexpected way. Zeolites could be ...

TEMPE, Ariz. – A team of researchers from Arizona State University and Mayo Clinic is showing how a staple of Earth science research can be used in biomedical settings to predict the course of disease ...

Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory has announced a new way to reliably make element 116, livermorium. The results, made by ...

Why do some elements decay in minutes, while others last billions of years? Certain "magic numbers" of nuclear particles may ...

Calcium isotope geochemistry examines the subtle variations in the 44Ca/40Ca ratio within geological, biological and environmental systems. These variations, expressed as δ44/40Ca values relative to a ...

In a groundbreaking study published in Physical Review Letters, physicists from ETH Zurich, in collaboration with teams from Germany and Australia, have made strides in the search for a potential ...

If you would like to learn more about the IAEA’s work, sign up for our weekly updates containing our most important news, multimedia and more. Like everything we see in the world, isotopes are a type ...

Just a few hundred feet from where we are sitting is a large metal chamber devoid of air and draped with the wires needed to control the instruments inside. A beam of particles passes through the ...

Carbon capture is essential to reduce the impact of human carbon dioxide emissions on our climate. Researchers have developed a method to confirm whether carbon in concrete originates from the raw ...

Zeolites could be considered as nature’s workhorse. Filled with microscopic holes and channels, these ultraporous minerals can soak up environmental contaminants, filter drinking water, manage nuclear ...
