with certain "magic numbers" of nuclear particles making some isotopes especially resistant to radioactive decay. So what are these magic numbers, and why are they so special? The stability of atomic ...

There was a recent recall of so-called ‘radioactive shrimp’ that were potentially contaminated with cesium-137 (Cs-137). But contamination isn’t an all-or-nothing affair, so you might wonder exactly ...

The domestic management system for high-level radioactive waste (spent nuclear fuel) will go into full operation. The Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy said on the 16th that the Cabinet approved ...

In a story unprecedented in my memory, multiple cargo containers carrying shrimp from Indonesia to U.S. grocers were found contaminated with dangerously radioactive cesium-137 (Cs-137). None of the ...

For all our telescopes and colliders, dark matter has remained an elusive ghost for the better part of a century. It outweighs everything we see by a factor of five, yet it slips past every detector ...
