Sentence examples for nucleus heavy from inspiring English sources

The core of the sun is a fiery furnace so hot and dense that protons nuclei of hydrogen, the sun's main constituent slam together with such force that they fuse, producing a deuterium nucleus (heavy hydrogen, made of a proton and a neutron) plus an antielectron and a neutrino.

The largest binding energy (highest stability) occurs near mass number 56 the mass region of the element iron.Figure 1 indicates that any nucleus heavier than mass number 56 would become a more stable system by breaking into lighter nuclei of higher binding energy with the difference in binding energy being released in the process.

Instead of fusion of like nuclei, heavy elements are created by the addition of more and more neutrons to existing nuclei.

HeLa/TAP-Bcl-xL cells were fractionated in cytosolic (S100), nuclear (Nuclei), heavy membranes (HMM) and light membranes (LMM) fractions by differential centrifugation.

The former, discovered by Henri Becquerel in 1898, is the spontaneous emission of an alpha particle (4He) by a heavy nucleus; it is typical of many nuclei heavier than lead.

The flux of the light elements, together with the all-particle energy spectrum, indicates the dominance of nuclei heavier than helium in the energy range around the knee.

The alpha-emitting nuclei heavier than radium are considered to be cigar-shaped, and alpha hindrance factor data have been used to infer the most probable zones of emission on the nuclear surface whether polar, equatorial, or intermediate latitudes.

Nuclei heavier than iron would gain energy by degrading into nuclear products closer to iron, but it is only for the elements of greatest mass that the rates of degradation processes such as alpha decay and spontaneous fission attain observable rates.

First, protons and neutrons combined to form the nucleus of heavy hydrogen, deuterium.

With the equipment he was able to produce intense beams of protons and of the nuclei of heavy hydrogen, and then study their interactions with light nuclei.

About 1910 Sir Ernest Rutherford's experiments on the scattering of alpha particles by the nuclei of heavy atoms led to the determination of the nuclear electrical charge.
