What is History and Science of Isotopes about?
Frederick Soddy and others discovered isotopes in 1913 based on studies of radioactive decay chains. Isotopes are variants of the same chemical element that have differing numbers of neutrons in their nuclei, making them identical chemically but with slightly varying atomic masses. Both stable and unstable (radioactive) isotopes exist. Radioactive isotopes are useful for applications like radiocarbon dating and medical treatments, but also pose health risks if they remain in the body for extended periods.
