The region of the nuclear chart below tin-100, the heaviest doubly-magic isotope with an equal number of protons (Z=50) and neutrons (N=50), has been of considerable interest in nuclear physics research for many years.

The Finnish Physical Society awards an annual prize for the excellent Master’s thesis in the field of physical sciences.

In nuclear physics so-called magic number are such nuclear proton and/or neutron numbers, for which the nucleus is more stable compared to neighboring isotopes on the nuclear chart.

Kiihdytin hiukkasen –physics competition organised for the upper secondary school groups by the University of Jyväskylä has finished.
