Nuclear Isotope Half-Lifes
The site demonstrates the half-life of ten basic nuclei and you can add or subtract a proton or a neutron to the current isotope.
Isotopes
Description of the notation used for different isotopes and the properties of the nucleus with good links to other sites.
High Flux Isotope Reactor Facility
Oak Ridge National Laboratory is home to the Spallation Neutron Source and the High Flux Isotope Reactor, two of the most advanced neutron research facilities in the world.
Isotopes and Radioactivity
Atoms of the same element can have different numbers of neutrons; the different possible versions of each element are called isotopes.
Fast Breeder Reactor
Under appropriate operating conditions, the neutrons given off by fission reactions can "breed" more fuel from otherwise non-fissionable isotopes.
Heavy Water Production
Information on heavy water, used for nuclear weapons. Heavy water, or D2O, is water in which both hydrogen atoms have been replaced with deuterium, the isotope of hydrogen containing one proton and ...
Radioactivity
Good simple revision guide for UK GCSE standard, includes topics such as isotopes, types of radiation, half-life and nuclear power.
The Radioactive Orchestra
Cool project where you can compose your own tunes using music based on the radiation emitted by radioactive isotopes.
Hyperphysics - Radioactive Dating
Use of Carbon dating and description of isotopes, nuclear force etc with good links to more info
