A team of researchers from the University of Chicago and Emory University has found evidence of a hydrogen bond/covalent bond hybrid. In their paper published in the journal Science, the group ...

A recent discovery of an extremely exotic, short-lived nucleus called fluorine-14 in laboratory experiments may indicate that scientists are gaining a better grasp of the rules of strong interaction.

A mineral found throughout subducting oceanic crust can shuttle fluorine and chlorine far deeper into Earth’s interior than previous models assumed. New experimental results show that phengite, a ...

There’s a shake-up taking place in fluorine chemistry. Synthetic organic chemists who don’t normally mess with fluorine are stepping in with their toolbox of synthetic methods to broaden the range of ...

Researchers at Washington University in St. Louis reported the first observations of a new form of fluorine, the isotope 13 F, described in the journal Physical Review Letters. They made their ...

Dripline: how many neutrons can you pack into a nucleus? (Courtesy: iStock/Altayb) The maximum number of neutrons that can be packed into fluorine and neon isotopes have been determined by nuclear ...

(PhysOrg.com) -- Like gravity, the strong interaction is a fundamental force of nature. It is the essential "glue" that holds atomic nuclei—composed of protons and neutrons— together to form atoms, ...
