The Wall Street Journal has cited the Clipped Tag on its list of 2006 Technology Innovation Winners.
This invention forms the basis for the design of today's RFID tags for the retail supply chain.
The rule helps give nuclear physicists insight into the complex structure of the atomic nucleus which may contain two hundred or more individual protons and neutrons.
1975) found the M-L rule to yield results closer to the measured values than did calculations based upon nuclear theory.
The rule has been applied to isotopes of elements including mercury, iridium, gold, thallium, platinum, tungsten, osmium, and barium.
T. Asaga, et al. have proposed measuring the systematics of the nuclear properties of a series of europium isotopes to test the universality of the rule (Z. Phys.
Researchers at Mainz, S. Trapp et al. (Hyperfine Interactions, 2000) have indicated that they plan to pursue experimental europium measurements.
