Alpha process

The alpha process, also known as alpha capture or the alpha ladder, is one of two classes of nuclear fusion reactions by which stars convert helium into heavier elements.

See Isotopes of sulfur and Alpha process

Argon

Argon is a chemical element; it has symbol Ar and atomic number 18.

See Isotopes of sulfur and Argon

Atmosphere of Earth

The atmosphere of Earth is composed of a layer of gas mixture that surrounds the Earth's planetary surface (both lands and oceans), known collectively as air, with variable quantities of suspended aerosols and particulates (which create weather features such as clouds and hazes), all retained by Earth's gravity.

See Isotopes of sulfur and Atmosphere of Earth

Beta decay

In nuclear physics, beta decay (β-decay) is a type of radioactive decay in which an atomic nucleus emits a beta particle (fast energetic electron or positron), transforming into an isobar of that nuclide.

See Isotopes of sulfur and Beta decay

Carbonate

A carbonate is a salt of carbonic acid,, characterized by the presence of the carbonate ion, a polyatomic ion with the formula.

See Isotopes of sulfur and Carbonate

Chlorine

Chlorine is a chemical element; it has symbol Cl and atomic number 17.

See Isotopes of sulfur and Chlorine

Cosmic ray spallation

Cosmic ray spallation, also known as the x-process, is a set of naturally occurring nuclear reactions causing nucleosynthesis; it refers to the formation of chemical elements from the impact of cosmic rays on an object.

See Isotopes of sulfur and Cosmic ray spallation

Cosmogenic nuclide

Cosmogenic nuclides (or cosmogenic isotopes) are rare nuclides (isotopes) created when a high-energy cosmic ray interacts with the nucleus of an in situ Solar System atom, causing nucleons (protons and neutrons) to be expelled from the atom (see cosmic ray spallation).

See Isotopes of sulfur and Cosmogenic nuclide

Forest

A forest is an ecosystem characterized by a dense community of trees.

See Isotopes of sulfur and Forest

Fugacity

In chemical thermodynamics, the fugacity of a real gas is an effective partial pressure which replaces the mechanical partial pressure in an accurate computation of chemical equilibrium.

See Isotopes of sulfur and Fugacity

Half-life

Half-life (symbol) is the time required for a quantity (of substance) to reduce to half of its initial value.

See Isotopes of sulfur and Half-life

Halo nucleus

In nuclear physics, an atomic nucleus is called a halo nucleus or is said to have a nuclear halo when it has a core nucleus surrounded by a "halo" of orbiting protons or neutrons, which makes the radius of the nucleus appreciably larger than that predicted by the liquid drop model.

See Isotopes of sulfur and Halo nucleus

Helium-4

Helium-4 is a stable isotope of the element helium.

See Isotopes of sulfur and Helium-4

Hydrology

Hydrology is the scientific study of the movement, distribution, and management of water on Earth and other planets, including the water cycle, water resources, and drainage basin sustainability.

See Isotopes of sulfur and Hydrology

Island of stability

In nuclear physics, the island of stability is a predicted set of isotopes of superheavy elements that may have considerably longer half-lives than known isotopes of these elements.

See Isotopes of sulfur and Island of stability

Isotope

Isotopes are distinct nuclear species (or nuclides) of the same chemical element.

See Isotopes of sulfur and Isotope

Mineral

In geology and mineralogy, a mineral or mineral species is, broadly speaking, a solid substance with a fairly well-defined chemical composition and a specific crystal structure that occurs naturally in pure form.

See Isotopes of sulfur and Mineral

Natural abundance

In physics, natural abundance (NA) refers to the abundance of isotopes of a chemical element as naturally found on a planet.

See Isotopes of sulfur and Natural abundance

Nuclear isomer

A nuclear isomer is a metastable state of an atomic nucleus, in which one or more nucleons (protons or neutrons) occupy excited state (higher energy) levels.

See Isotopes of sulfur and Nuclear isomer

Oxygen

Oxygen is a chemical element; it has symbol O and atomic number 8.

See Isotopes of sulfur and Oxygen

PH

In chemistry, pH, also referred to as acidity or basicity, historically denotes "potential of hydrogen" (or "power of hydrogen").

See Isotopes of sulfur and PH

Radionuclide

A radionuclide (radioactive nuclide, radioisotope or radioactive isotope) is a nuclide that has excess numbers of either neutrons or protons, giving it excess nuclear energy, and making it unstable.

See Isotopes of sulfur and Radionuclide

Rocky Mountains

The Rocky Mountains, also known as the Rockies, are a major mountain range and the largest mountain system in North America.

See Isotopes of sulfur and Rocky Mountains

Silicon-burning process

In astrophysics, silicon burning is a very brief sequence of nuclear fusion reactions that occur in massive stars with a minimum of about 8–11 solar masses.

See Isotopes of sulfur and Silicon-burning process

Sulfur

Sulfur (also spelled sulphur in British English) is a chemical element; it has symbol S and atomic number 16.

See Isotopes of sulfur and Sulfur

Sulfur isotope biogeochemistry

Sulfur isotope biogeochemistry is the study of the distribution of sulfur isotopes in biological and geological materials. Isotopes of sulfur and sulfur isotope biogeochemistry are sulfur.
