Researchers have synthesized five new isotopes that could help bring the stars down to Earth — and coax scientists a step closer to understanding how collisions between ultra-dense, dead stars could create heavy elements like gold and silver.
The five newly synthesized isotopes are exciting, though, because they aren't commonly occurring on our planet. In fact, they have never even been"This is probably the first time these isotopes have existed on the surface of the Earth," Bradley Sherrill, University Distinguished Professor in MSU's College of Natural Science and head of the Advanced Rare Isotope Separator Department at FRIB, said in the statement."I like to draw the analogy of taking a journey.
Those gravitational waves carry away angular momentum from the system, causing the neutron stars to draw together and emit more gravitational waves at greater intensities. This continues until the two eventually smash together. "It's not certain, but people think that all of the gold on Earth was made in neutron star collisions," Sherrill said. As a matter of fact, the James Webb Space Telescope recently found theIf scientists could recreate the superheavy elements involved in the r-process, they could better understand the creation of gold and other heavy elements. Alas, the creation of Thulium-182, thulium-183, ytterbium-186, ytterbium-187 and lutetium-190.
