Water may have flowed on the asteroid that birthed the space rock Ryugu a billion years after it formed, much later than ...

Stable isotopes are non-radioactive forms of atoms. Although they do not emit radiation, their unique properties enable them to be used in a broad variety of applications, including water and soil ...

On the periodic table, most elements have at least one stable form. But others have only unstable forms, all of which decay by emitting radiation and transforming into different elements until ...

THE elements 81 (thallium), 82 (lead), and 83 (bismuth) have both radioactive and inactive isotopes, whereas the elements 84–92 are only known in an active form. Several attempts have been made to ...
