carbon has six protons in its nucleus and six electrons in the energy orbits surrounding the nucleus. Electrons are described as surrounding the nucleus of an atom in shells. These are not actual ...

A new reagent has moved carbon-atom transfer out of the chemical flatlands, allowing chemists to place a single carbon atom so that it makes bonds to four different substituents. The reagent makes ...

University of Queensland scientists have cracked a long-standing puzzle in nuclear physics, showing that nuclear polarization ...

University of Queensland researchers have made a breakthrough in muonic atom research ... better understand the magnetic structure of the nucleus. "Muonic atoms are really fascinating!" ...

This technology is part of what is known as carbon capture and storage (CCS). At the time of the 1997 Kyoto Protocol it was already being proposed as a way to reduce emissions in localised sources ...

Molten Salt Reactors (MSRs) are nuclear fission reactors in which either the fuel and/or the coolant is a molten salt. Molten salt is salt which liquifies at elevated temperatures and can store ...

Amazon, Meta and Google sign a pledge to triple nuclear energy output by 2050, but where are Microsoft and Oracle?

Over the last 18 months, they have been working with 30 leading business in the Shropshire Council area to help them understand their carbon emissions, and how to reduce them. Some of the County's ...
