Researchers have discovered the heaviest-known bound #isotope of sodium and characterized other neutron-rich isotopes.
"The existence of 39Na provides information about #nuclear stability and structure, offering an important benchmark for nuclear models," writes Yorick Blumenfeld of #CNRS and the University of Paris-Saclay.
