Isotopes that are lighter than the stable < sup > 123 </ sup > Sb tend to decay by β < sup >+</ sup > decay, and those that are heavier tend to decay by β < sup >-</ sup > decay, with some exceptions.

The two groups are Emanuel Maxwell, who published his results in Isotope Effect in the Superconductivity of Mercury and C. A. Reynolds, B. Serin, W. H. Wright, and L. B. Nesbitt who published their results 10 pages later in Superconductivity of Isotopes of Mercury.

Isotopes are atoms of the same element ( that is, with the same number of protons in their atomic nucleus ), but having different numbers of neutrons.

Isotopes are distinguished by the atomic mass number ( total protons and neutrons ) for a particular isotope of an element, with this number combined with the pertinent element's symbol.

The least stable is < sup > 138 </ sup > Dy with a half-life of 200 ms. Isotopes that are lighter than the stable isotopes tend to decay primarily by β < sup >+</ sup > decay, while those that are heavier tend to decay by β < sup >−</ sup > decay, with some exceptions.

Isotopes of other elements are not so great a problem as they can be removed by chemical means.

Isotopes of unbinilium are predicted to have alpha decay half-lives of the order of microseconds.

The Albuquerque Isotopes are a minor league baseball team based in Albuquerque, New Mexico.

Isotopes are often preferentially absorbed by biologically active tissue in the body, and can be used to identify tumors or fracture points in bone.

Isotopes with gaseous precursors solidify on the surface of the particles as they are produced by decay.

Isotopes and Mass-spectra and Isotopes are his most well-known books.

* Isotopes are nuclides having the same number of protons ; e. g. carbon-12 and carbon-13.

The other divisions and technical groups are: Accelerator Applications, Aerospace Nuclear Science & Technology Technical Group, Biology and Medicine, Computational Medical Physics Working Group, Decommissioning, Decontamination & Reutilization, Education and Training, Environmental Sciences, Fuel Cycle and Waste Management ; Fusion Energy ; Human Factors ; Isotopes and Radiation ; Materials Science and Technology ; Mathematics and Computation, Nuclear Criticality Safety ; Nuclear Installations Safety, Operations and Power ; Radiation Protection and Shielding ; Reactor Physics ; Robotics and Remote Systems ; and Thermal hydraulics.

The owner refuses to give Homer a refund, but in his haste to leave Homer accidentally enters a room and discovers evidence that the Isotopes are moving to Albuquerque.

The crowd then takes notice that the hot dogs are even wrapped with " Albuquerque Isotopes " paper and are enraged.

Months later, he enters Moe's Tavern and is informed by Lenny and Carl that the Isotopes are in the playoffs, and have, so far, been playing well.

Isotopes of samarium are used in samarium-neodymium dating for determining the age relationships of rocks and meteorites.

Isotopes were then explained as elements with the same number of protons, but different numbers of neutrons within the nucleus.

* Isotopes: The kinetic isotope effect consists in a different reaction rate for the same molecule if it has different isotopes, usually hydrogen isotopes, because of the mass difference between hydrogen and deuterium.

Isotopes of a chemical element differ only in the mass number.

* Isotopes that undergo Beta emission transmute from one element to another element, those that undergo gamma or X-ray emission don't change in element or isotope.

Isotopes of bohrium have also been detected in the decay of heavier elements.

The Marlins may have won the 2003 World Series, but up until playoff time, their Triple-A Albuquerque Isotopes franchise was outdrawing the major league club most nights of the week.

Isotopes of Carbon, Oxygen, and Nitrogen can be purified by chilling these gases or compounds nearly to their liquification temperature in very tall columns ( 200 to 700 feet tall — 70 to 200 meters ).

Martinez played three games for their Triple-A affiliate, the Albuquerque Isotopes, and became a free agent at the end of the season.

Phillips signed with the Florida Marlins and assigned to the Albuquerque Isotopes, their Triple-A Pacific Coast League affiliate on July 29, 2007.

Neither the opening with The Isotopes nor the finale with the rather dire song help this one at all, and frankly, if it wasn't for the superb parody of Village of the Damned, and the kids ' revenge by revealing their family's secrets, it'd sink without trace.

When they sell candy in the hope of becoming batboys at a Springfield Isotopes game, the " Pre-Teen Braves " try to thwart the " Cavalry Kids " by lacing their candy bars with laxatives.

After the Isotopes ' season ended, the Marlins placed him back on their Major League roster.

* Nuclides and Isotopes – 14th Edition, GE Nuclear Energy, 1989.

Isotopes with atomic masses lower than the most abundant stable isotope, < sup > 158 </ sup > Gd, primarily decay via electron capture to Eu ( europium ) isotopes.

Isotopes heavier than < sup > 62 </ sup > Ni cannot be formed by nuclear fusion without losing energy.

Isotopes of silver range in relative atomic mass from 93. 943 (< sup > 94 </ sup > Ag ) to 126. 936 (< sup > 127 </ sup > Ag ); the primary decay mode before the most abundant stable isotope, < sup > 107 </ sup > Ag, is electron capture and the primary mode after is beta decay.

I have chosen to use the word `` mimesis '' in its Christian rather than its classic implications and to discover in the concrete forms of both art and myth powers of theological expression which, as in the Christian mind, are the direct consequence of involvement in historical experience, which are not reserved, as in the Greek mind, only to moments of theoretical reflection.

The pamphlets are about law, the corporation, forms of government, the idea of freedom, the defense of liberty, the various lethargies which overtake our major institutions, the gap between traditional social ideals and the working mechanisms that have been set in motion for their realization.

When combined with the metaphysical notion that pure forms of this universe are best appreciated when least embodied in a material substratum, it becomes clear that while earth will be dross on a scale of material-formal ratios, celestial bodies will be of a subtle, quickened, ethereal existence, in whose embodiment pure form will be the dominant component and matter will be absent or remain subsidiary.

This understanding, of course, may in its turn take many forms and some of these -- especially those most interesting to the student of comparative literature -- are essentially historical.

Once the poetic arts are separated from the other forms, he lays down his famous definition of tragedy, which sets up standards and so lends direction to the remainder of the work.

Even in the nineteenth century such accomplished philologists as Kemble and Guest were led into what now seem ludicrous errors because of their failure to recognize that modern forms of place names are not necessarily the result of logical philological development.

in working with these patients the therapist eventually gets to do some at least private mulling over of the possible meaning of a belch, or the passage of flatus, not only because he is reduced to this for lack of anything else to analyze, but also because he learns that even these animal-like sounds constitute forms of communication in which, from time to time, quite different things are being said, long before the patient can become sufficiently aware of these, as distinct feelings and concepts, to say them in words.

Dictionary forms found to match forms in the text list are marked.

The dictionary is a form dictionary, at least in the sense that complete forms are used as the basis for matching text occurrences with dictionary entries.

For this step the computer memory is separated into three regions: cells in the W-region are used for storage of the forms in the text-form list ; ;

cells in the X-region and Y region are reserved as information cells for text forms.

The list of text forms in the W-region of memory and the contents of the information cells in the X and Y-regions are no longer required.

The grammatical descriptions of all forms in the dictionary are recorded in a separate part of the dictionary file.

The only requirements on dictionary information made by the text-lookup operation are that each form represented by the dictionary be available for lookup in the text-form list and that information for each form be available in a sequence identical with the sequence of the forms.

Two very useful ways for modifying a form-dictionary are the addition to the dictionary of complete paradigms rather than single forms and the application of a single change to more than one dictionary form.

If all forms of a paradigm are grouped together within the dictionary, a considerable reduction in the amount of information required is possible.

There would be no conceivable sense in going to the opposite extreme of selecting items whose forms are the most unstable.

The rows of animals and birds, in particular, suggest awareness of Oriental animal friezes, transmitted perhaps via Syrian silver bowls and textiles, but the specific forms of these rows on local vases and metal products are nonetheless Greek.

While patent suits are still among the most complex and expensive forms of litigation, these rules have saved litigants uncounted sums of money.

But since this is a world in which people disagree about ends and goals and concerning justice and injustice, and since, in a situation where direct action and economic pressure are called for, the justice of the matter has either not been clearly defined by law or the law is not effectively present, there has to be a morality of means applied in every case in which people take it upon themselves to use economic pressures or other forms of force.

Nor is it necessary to look for such evidence in the great urban centers of our culture that are admittedly almost entirely secularized and so profoundly estranged from the conventional forms in which the gospel has been communicated.

Although the theological forms of the past continue to exist in a way they do not in a more secularized situation, the striking thing is the rapidity with which they are being reduced to a marginal existence.

In the absence of a truly adequate conceptuality in which the gospel can be expressed, the unavoidable need to demythologize it makes use of whatever resources are at hand -- and this usually means one or another of the various forms of `` folk religion '' current in the situation.
