Scientists Detect Elusive New Isotope in Landmark Superheavy Experiment

A new seaborgium isotope may unlock the path to discovering even shorter-lived superheavy nuclei through K-isomer states. An international team of researchers from GSI/FAIR, Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (JGU), and the Helmholtz Institute Mainz (HIM) has successfully produced a new isotope of the element seaborgium. During experiments at the GSI/FAIR accelerator facilities, scientists detected 22 […]
