Nuclear mass staggering explains missing stable technetium and promethium
Daiki Nishimura, Takumi Hasegawa, Rinku Prajapat
Technetium (Tc) and promethium (Pm) are the only elements that lack stable isotopes in the range up to bismuth, a long-standing puzzle in physics and chemistry. We treat this absen…

Xenon-gas ionization chamber to improve particle identification of heavy ion beams with Z>70
Masahiro Yoshimoto, Naoki Fukuda, Riku Matsumura +9
In conventional ionization chambers (ICs) using P-10 (Ar+CH4) gas, as the atomic number (Z) of the ion beams increases in the energy region of 200-300 MeV/u, the Z resolution deter…
