nuclear transmutation

An example is the nuclear transmutation of carbon-12 to carbon-13.

She is most famous for her research on nuclear transmutations and radioactivity.

In the 1930s, neutrons were used to produce many different types of nuclear transmutations.

This makes it and its predecessors such as americium-241 candidates of interest for destruction by nuclear transmutation.

Some work in nuclear transmutation had been done.

All of these processes result in nuclear transmutation.

The other involves nuclear transmutation and is, arguably, feasible.

The cloud chamber was the first detector of radioactivity and nuclear transmutation.

Nuclear transmutation is the conversion of one chemical element or isotope into another.

Nuclear transmutation can occur through various natural processes, or it may be artificially induced by human intervention.

This procedure is well known as nuclear transmutation, but it is still being developed for americium.

The remaining known nuclides are known solely from artificial nuclear transmutation.

The best-known classes of exothermic nuclear transmutations are fission and fusion.

The element is not changed to another element in the process (no nuclear transmutation is involved).

Zr is a less attractive candidate for disposal by nuclear transmutation than are Tc-99 and I-129.

Fission is a form of nuclear transmutation because the resulting fragments are not the same element as the original atom.

Artificial nuclear transmutation has been considered as a possible mechanism for reducing the volume and hazard of radioactive waste.

A biological transmutation is defined as a nuclear transmutation occurring in a living organism.

Cold fusion researchers have since claimed to find X-rays, helium, neutrons and even nuclear transmutations.

This is called Nuclear transmutation.

See nuclear transmutation for details.

(Tc-99 and Iodine-129 are also candidates for nuclear transmutation to stable isotopes by neutron capture.)

See Nuclear transmutation.

Subsequent chemical and particle analysis of the target material may give insight into nuclear transmutation of the elements used in the target.

Rutherford went on to use alpha particles to accidentally produce what he later understood as a directed nuclear transmutation of one element to another, in 1917.
