Unlike an Iron Age collapse, a Bronze Age collapse releases energy, since copper and tin are past the iron peak on the curve of binding energy.

[An unstable nucleus emits a gamma ray.] Gamma Decay

[A proton-rich atom absorbs an electron from an electron shell and emits an electron neutrino. Underneath is a drawing of a proton converted into a neutron.] Electron Capture

[A proton-rich nucleus emits a W+ boson. Underneath is a drawing of a neutron turnt into a positron.] Positron Emission

[A neutron-rich/proton-deficient unstable nucleus emits a neutron.] Neutron Emission

[All the subatomic particles burst from the atom simultaneously.] Baryon Panic

[The atom is imploded by a skull, cracking the surrounding area and sending neutrons and protons flying off.] Omega Decay

Decay Chains

Introduction A decay chain, also known as a radioactive decay series or a radioactive cascade, is a sequence of radioactive decays of different radioactive isotopes, each decaying into a “daughter” isotope, which then decays into another, and so on until a stable isotope is reached. Types of Decay Three primary types of decay can occur in a decay chain: alpha decay, beta decay, and gamma…

Merry Christmas @woolmasterleel !!! Love Story has prepared some tasty treats for a limbo celebration….. ignore the little spot on the ground there’s nothing to see there :)

LOOK AT THE CREATURE SHE DREW FOR ME IM SOBBING HES SO PERFECT LEEL YOU. ARE AWESOME.

alpha and beta decay you say, uh. next is omega decay, right? right?

This is evident when we consider figure 27.1, which shows all the stable nuclei on a plot of the numbers of neutrons (N) versus the number of protons (Z). These data have a definite pattern that shows that all stable nuclei fall within a band of stability (the shaded region in figure 27.1). (...) As Z increases, the effect of electrical repulsion increases, and, therefore, more neutrons are required to generate enough nuclear force to stabilise the nucleus. This accounts for the gradual increase in the slope of the plot in figure 27.1. However, when Z increases beyond a certain point, added neutrons can no longer stabilise the nucleus, and this is suggested in figure 27.1 by the fact that there are no stable nuclei beyond lead, Z = 82 (the ²⁰⁹83Bi nucleus was, for many years, thought to be stable, but was shown in 2003 to undergo alpha decay, with a half-life of 1.9 × 10¹⁹ years). (...) Careful inspection of figure 27.1 shows that there are no stable nuclei having Z = 43 or Z = 61. (...) Careful inspection of figure 27.1 shows that, when the numbers of neutrons and protons in a nucleus are both even, the isotope is far more likely to be stable than when both numbers are odd. (...) The magic numbers of nucleons are 2, 8, 20, 28, 50, 82 and 126, and figure 27.1 shows, with the exception of number 126, where they fall.

We have seen in figure 27.1 that there are relatively few combinations of protons and neutrons that give rise to stable nuclei. (...) Positron emission is most often found in nuclei lying below the band of stability (figure 27.1), as this increases the neutron to proton ratio, so the resulting nucleus lies closer to the band of stability. (...) More than 1000 isotopes have been made by transmutations. Most do not occur naturally, and these appear in the band of stability (figure 27.1) as small open squares, nearly 900 in number.

Alpha Decay

Introduction Alpha decay is a type of radioactive decay in which an atomic nucleus emits an alpha particle and transforms into a new nucleus. An alpha particle is identical to the nucleus of a helium atom, consisting of two protons and two neutrons. Alpha Decay Equation The general equation for alpha decay is: $ ^A_ZX \rightarrow ^{A-4}_{Z-2}X’ + ^4_2\alpha $ where $^A_ZX$ is the parent…

What do you have against nuclear chems? You nuclear chemist.

As a child a nuclear chem broke into my house and killed my mother in front of me while looking me dead in the eyes and saying "I made her half-life a couple seconds" before releasing so much energy it blew up the building and ever since then I've had lifelong trauma that causes me to break out uncontrollably crying every time I see a neutron
