Germanium enrichment
Indium Indium is one of the rarest earth elements on planet Earth. It was discovered in 1863 by German chemist Ferdinand Reich and Theodor Richter. Indium is classified as a post-transition metal as it has properties of both a metal and a non-metal. It was named after the indigo blue line found i......

radioactive metal
Radiation of Metals Radiation is a form of energy released from atoms during nuclear reactions. When a single radioactive atom decays, it releases energy in the form of ionizing radiation. This radiation can be detected and measured with instruments called radiation detectors. Some elements can e......
radioactive decay system
Radiative Decay Radiative decay is a process of decay of a particle into two lower-energy particles, in which energy is released in a form of electromagnetic radiation, or photons. It is one of the primary modes of decay for unstable particles. Radiative decay is often the product of an unstable ......
