Interior of the Projectile Spectator Detector (PSD) used in the NA61/SHINE experiment at CERN. In collisions of argon and scandium atomic nuclei, scientists from the international NA61/SHINE ...

The methods previously described have been applied to a study of the elastic scattering of 4· 2 MeV protons by deuterium, helium, nitrogen, oxygen, neon, argon, chlorine and bromine. The results ...

A schematic diagram of proton and neutron distributions for mirror nuclei argon-31 and aluminum-31. Left side is the weakly bound proton-rich nucleus argon-31, which is predicted to exhibit a ...

For example, the atomic number of chlorine is 17. Every chlorine atom has 17 protons and 17 electrons. It has 17 positive charges and 17 negative charges, meaning that it is neutral overall. Atoms of ...
