New research from scientists at Linköping University, Sweden, describes a recent discovery revealing where the energy lost during singlet fission goes. The results, published in the journal Cell ...

This high school chemistry experiment is certainly a good advert for 3D television. Students at Horizon Science Academy Cleveland High School showed how a nuclear chain fission reaction occurs by ...

The irradiated uranium sample was then brought to the chemistry laboratory where the subsequent radioactive elements from the nuclear fission were isolated using chemical methods. In 1938, due to the ...

An international research team led by GSI/FAIR, Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (JGU) and Helmholtz Institute Mainz (HIM) has succeeded in the production of a new seaborgium isotope. In the ...

In the summer of 1938, both Meitner and Frisch were forced to flee Germany. They made their seminal contributions to fission in exile, communicating with the Berlin-based Hahn and Strassmann by letter ...
