"Hunting The Elements." Calcium (Ca) is all around us and even within us: from rocks to shells, pearls, antacids, bones, teeth (in the form of a mineral appropriately named apatite), nerves ...

Calling herself “one of us old ladies,” Mildred Seelig said she has a bone to pick with osteoporosis researchers who endorse increased calcium in the diet to fight the degenerative skeletal ...

The five heaviest elements were all produced using a beam of calcium-48. That’s a variety, or isotope, of calcium with 28 neutrons in its nucleus. To produce those different heavy elements ...

Orange fireworks are created with the element calcium. (Image courtesy of WorldScienceFestival.com) Silver shimmers in the night sky, due to superheating the elements of magnesium or aluminum.

A team in the PRISMA+ cluster of excellence at the Johannes Gutenberg University in Mainz succeeded in computing how atomic nuclei of the Calcium element behave in collisions with electrons.

the group bombarded a target made of californium (Element 98) with a high-speed beam of calcium (Element 20). In extremely rare instances, the calcium bullets hit the californium atoms head on ...

A team has succeeded in computing how atomic nuclei of the Calcium element behave in collisions with electrons. Results agree very well with available experimental data. For the first time ...
