Why Does Everything Decay Into Lead
If you look at a copy of the periodic table, you might notice that basically every element after lead is labelled as radioactive. And the vast majority of those elements wind up decaying into some version of lead eventually. But why is...

The Hunt For Green Helium
Despite being a noble gas, helium has a carbon footprint. We haven't managed to find any helium reservoirs that don't also contain natural gas. But must they? Scientists and startups alike are on the hunt.

Conservation of Nucleon Number
In this video Paul Andersen explains how the nucleon number and charge is conserved in all nuclear reactions and radioactive decay. Fission, fusion, alpha decay, beta decay, and gamma decay all conserve the number of neutrons and...

Conservation of Charge in Reactions
In this video Paul Andersen explains how the charge is conserved in nuclear reactions. When elementary particles are created or destroyed in a reaction the net change in charge will remain constant. Alpha, beta -, and beta+ decay are all...
