Nuclear Geometry: from Silicon to Argon

Аннотация

The nuclear geometry has been developed by analogy with the fullerene geometry. On the basis of this geometric approach, it is possible to design the structure of silicon, phosphorus, sulfur, chlorine and argon isomers as well as their isotopes, which can be obtained by means of nuclear synthesis. The nuclei can be classed into two groups: basic nuclei having equal number of protons and neutrons, and isotopes having one or two more neutrons. The neutrons decompose into protons and electrons; the latter creating the coat of mail which ensures mechanical stability of the nuclei with respect to shear stresses and thermal vibrations.
