As easy as ABC: how to classify exotic nuclei
30-09-2026
With the progress of science, over 3000 nuclear isotopes have already been discovered, many with various exotic properties. Researchers all around the world search for a universal classification scheme to properly describe them to a modern standard. A group of scientists from the National Centre for Nuclear Research and University of Padova in Italy proposed a novel naming scheme for nuclei, based on definitions and properties that characterize modern nuclear physics.
