Self-Confining Radioactive-isotope Ion Target
Facts for Prelims (FFP) Source: TH Context: Researchers in Japan have developed a sophisticated setup to study unstable atomic nuclei, including those that don’t exist naturally, using electron scattering. This method, called SCRIT (Self-Confining Radioactive-isotope Ion Target), allows scientists to trap target ions in three dimensions along an electron beam, improving the chances …
