| Jun 7, 2018 at 16:02 | comment | added | Solidification | @EmilioPisanty Comparing binding energy is not enough to conclude whether a nucleus will be radioactive or not? If not binding energy, what is/are the criteria for a nucleus to be radioactive? | |
| Jun 7, 2018 at 15:53 | comment | added | Emilio Pisanty | Set A as helium-4 (with binding energy 28 MeV) and B as uranium-235 (with binding energy 1.8 GeV) so that the binding energy of A is less than the binding energy of B, and B is radioactive; here A is not radioactive. I imagine that you didn't mean your language to include this case, but as you've written the question then this situation needs to be included - so maybe you should think a bit more carefully about what, exactly, you want to ask? | |
