27.09.2021 15:50 Precision mass measurements of indium isotopes allow conclusions on the mass of the atomic nucleus of tin-100 Jeannette Schütze Hochschulkommunikation Universität Greifswald ...

Testing the possible doubly magic nature of Tin-100, researchers study the electromagnetic properties of indium isotopes Scientists are closing in on a major cornerstone of nuclear physics, Tin-100 ...

By pelting thousands of atoms of a common indium isotope with lasers and electromagnetic forces, the researchers managed to bring their temperature down all the way to 15 millionths of one Kelvin.

Certain isotopes such as Indium-115 (In-115) are extremely long lived, taking over 100 trillon years for half of the Indium atoms to decay away. These isotopes allow scientists to probe the ...

Details of the latest developments are under lock & key, but World War II has been the making of indium: Indium is a once-rare metal that even in very small quantities makes soft metals hard, ...

Indium is a relatively rare, metallic element that was discovered back in 1863 by German chemists Ferdinand Reich and Hieronymous Richter, though they’d later have a spat about which one of them ...

Atoms of the soft, silvery metal indium have been chilled to temperatures so cold that the particles can demonstrate strange quantum behaviour, such as forming new types of matter.
