13.3.2020 Probing the nuclei beyond the proton drip line below lead (Hilton)

Researchers at the Department of Physics at the University of Jyväskylä have discovered three new proton (two-proton) unbound isotopes of 169Au, 165Pt, and 170Hg.

In their work Academy research fellow Hannu Paukkunen (left) and professor Kari j. Eskola determined the quark and gluon distributions of protons and neutrons inside atomic nuclei, as well as quantified their uncertainties.
