Also referred to as pleural effusion or ' fluid on lungs ', the condition is commonly diagnosed among TB patients. Normally, there is a small amount of fluid surrounding the lungs but in TB there is bacterial growth in the fluid filled space between the chest wall and the lungs.
Following are the equations of several nuclear reactions that have important roles in the history of nuclear chemistry: 1  The first naturally occurring unstable element that was isolated, polonium, was discovered by the Polish scientist Marie Curie and her husband Pierre in 1898. It decays, emitting Î± particles:
Lawrencium was discovered by Albert Ghiorso, Torbjorn Sikkeland, Almon E. Larsh, and Robert M. Latimer (US) in 1961. Named in honour of Ernest O. Lawrence, inventor of the cyclotron. It is a synthetic radioactive metal. Lawrencium was produced by bombarding a mixture of three isotopes of californium with boron-10 and boron-11 ions. Eight isotopes of lawrencium have been synthesized to date, with the longest-lived being lawrencium-256, which has a half-life of about 30 seconds.
