  3. Isotopes of protactinium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isotopes_of_protactinium

    The former occurs as an intermediate decay product of 235 U, while the latter two occur as intermediate decay products of 238 U. 231 Pa makes up nearly all natural protactinium. The primary decay mode for isotopes of Pa lighter than (and including) the most stable isotope 231 Pa is alpha decay , except for 228 Pa to 230 Pa, which primarily ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_neutron_decay

    For the free neutron, the decay energy for this process (based on the rest masses of the neutron, proton and electron) is 0.782 343 MeV.That is the difference between the rest mass of the neutron and the sum of the rest masses of the products.

    Kepler-186f [2] [3] (also known by its Kepler object of interest designation KOI-571.05) is an Earth-sized exoplanet orbiting within the habitable zone of the red dwarf star Kepler-186, [4] [5] [6] the outermost of five such planets discovered around the star by NASA's Kepler space telescope.

  7. Branching fraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Branching_fraction

    In particle physics and nuclear physics, the branching fraction (or branching ratio) for a decay is the fraction of particles that decay by an individual decay mode or with respect to the total number of particles which decay. It applies to either the radioactive decay of atoms or the decay of elementary particles. [1]

  8. RL10 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RL10

    The RL10 is a liquid-fuel cryogenic rocket engine built in the United States by Aerojet Rocketdyne that burns cryogenic liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen propellants. Modern versions produce up to 110 kN (24,729 lb f) of thrust per engine in vacuum.

  9. Gravitational wave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravitational_wave

    The orbital frequency will vary from 1 orbit per second at the start, to 918 orbits per second when the orbit has shrunk to 20 km at merger. The majority of gravitational radiation emitted will be at twice the orbital frequency. Just before merger, the inspiral could be observed by LIGO if such a binary were close enough.
