An element is defined according to the number of protons contained inside the nucleus of each atom. No two elements have the same number of protons, hence each element has a unique atomic number ...

“Our findings show that the way protons move in biological systems isn’t just about chemistry — it’s also about quantum physics.

Japanese scientists have made a new (nu?) periodic table organized by the number of protons in the nucleus instead of the element’s number of electrons. They call it the Nucletouch table, and ...

Five of the biggest unanswered questions about the proton There is a lot we don’t know about protons, the particles at the heart of the atom, from what they are made of to whether they live forever.
