  1. Webb Telescope Detects Unusually High Levels of “Heavy Hydrogen,” a Key Component of Nuclear Fusion Fuel, in 3I/ATLAS

    New observations of the interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS by NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope have revealed an all-new twist…

  3. RE: mstdn.social/@archaeology/1159

    A great and detailed #study about early #medieval #migration events to #England from 400–1100 AD. The study concludes that, contrary to the #traditional #narrative, there was no abrupt migration event, but rather that England was settled #continuously. This is supported by #oxygen #isotope #analysis of human #teeth.

    study uses ancient plant to decode #Earth's #climate history
    the study focuses on #horsetails — hollow-stemmed #plants that have thrived on Earth for more than 400 million years. The team’s findings reveal that #water traveling through these plants undergoes such intense natural #distillation that its #oxygen #isotope ratios resemble those found in meteorites or in extraterrestrial materials.

  18. ⏰New paper⏰

    Very excited to share our more recent paper published today in @nature Communications, where we show based on #clumped #isotope measurements in a giant sea #snail 🐚 that Europe experienced a monsoon-like climate during the #Eocene high-CO2 period.

  28. For atomic nuclei, I understand that there is a stability benefit for having even numbers of protons or neutrons, and I understand why having too few neutrons would be destabilizing due to charge-charge repulsion, but why does having too *high* a number of neutrons also lead to nuclear instability? #science #chemistry #nuclear #isotope
