Physiological importance and role of Mg2+ in improving bacterial resistance to cesium
Cesium (Cs) is an alkali metal with radioactive isotopes such as 137Cs and 134Cs. 137Cs, a product of uranium fission, has garnered attention as a radioactive contaminant.

Radium-based estimates of cesium isotope transport and total direct ocean discharges from the Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant accident [PDF]
Radium has four naturally occurring isotopes that have proven useful in constraining water mass source, age, and mixing rates in the coastal and open ocean.

Search for Possible Variation of the Fine Structure Constant [PDF]
Determination of the fine structure constant alpha and search for its possible variation are considered. We focus on a role of the fine structure constant in modern physics and discuss precision tests of quantum electrodynamics.

Nuclear spins and magnetic moments of some cesium isotopes [PDF]
Using an atomic-beam magnetic resonance apparatus connected on-line with the ISOLDE isotope separator, CERN, hyperfine structure measurements have been performed in the 2S12 electronic ground state of some cesium isotopes. An on-line oven system which efficiently converts a mass separated ion beam of alkali isotopes to an atomic beam is described in ...

Venting of fission products and shielding in thermionic nuclear reactor systems [PDF]
Most thermionic reactors are designed to allow the fission gases to escape out of the emitter. A scheme to allow the fission gases to escape is proposed.

Barium isotopic composition of mainstream silicon carbides from Murchison : constraints for s-process nucleosynthesis in asymptotic giant branch stars [PDF]
We present barium, carbon, and silicon isotopic compositions of 38 acid-cleaned presolar SiC grains from Murchison. Comparison with previous data shows that acid washing is highly effective in removing barium contamination.

High-accuracy mass determination of unstable cesium and barium isotopes [PDF]
Abstract Direct mass measurements of short-lived Cs and Ba isotopes have been performed with the tandem Penning trap mass spectrometer ISOLTRAP installed at the on-line isotope separator ISOLDE at CERN. Typically, a mass resolving power of 600 000 and an accuracy of δm ≈ 13 keV have been obtained.
