Neutrons in unstable nuclei can also decay in the most common manner above.

Some elements, and many isotopes, have what is called an unstable nucleus.

But it does provide a recipe for predicting the stable and unstable nuclei.

When it is studied, the probability of decay (from an unstable nucleus) turns out to be constant and does not change with time.

The reactions produce highly unstable nuclei that are rich in neutrons.

It is through their absorption by and the creation of unstable nuclei that they cause ionization.

Thus, in the given model, the average person dies under the same law as an unstable atomic nucleus decays.

The reason for the excitement in using lasers is that they enable us to study unstable nuclei, which was not previously possible.

There are many different ways to make these measurements on unstable nuclei.

Usually, though, what you produce is an unstable nucleus that has lost an electron or so.
