While genetic tests can reveal the ancestry of enslaved individuals, strontium analysis can now home in on where they actually grew up.

Strontium is a metal in group IIA of the periodic table with atomic number 38, an atomic weight of 87.62, and a density of 2.6 Mg/m 3. Its melting point is 768 C, and it boils at 1380 C. The ...

Researchers are exploring multi-level atomic interactions to enhance quantum entanglement. Using metastable states in ...

Researchers mapped predicted bioavailable strontium isotope ratios across Sub-Saharan Africa. Matching values from the map against those observed in artifacts and plant, animal, and human remains will ...

Strontium isoscape of sub-Saharan Africa allows tracing origins of victims of the transatlantic slave trade. Nature Communications , 2024; 15 (1) DOI: 10.1038/s41467-024-55256-0 Cite This Page : ...
