  2. Hydrogen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogen

    Liquid and solid phases can exist in combination at the triple point, a substance known as slush hydrogen. [39] Metallic hydrogen, a phase obtained at extremely high pressures (in excess of 400 gigapascals (3,900,000 atm; 58,000,000 psi)), is an electrical conductor. It is believed to exist deep within giant planets like Jupiter. [38] [40]

  3. Composition of the human body - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Composition_of_the_human_body

    Parts-per-million cube of relative abundance by mass of elements in an average adult human body down to 1 ppm. About 99% of the mass of the human body is made up of six elements: oxygen, carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, calcium, and phosphorus. Only about 0.85% is composed of another five elements: potassium, sulfur, sodium, chlorine, and magnesium ...

  4. Natural hydrogen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_hydrogen

    Natural hydrogen (known as white hydrogen, geologic hydrogen, [1] geogenic hydrogen, [2] or gold hydrogen) is molecular hydrogen present on Earth that is formed by natural processes [3] [4] (as opposed to hydrogen produced in a laboratory or in industry).

  5. Hydrogen atom - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogen_atom

    Depiction of a hydrogen atom showing the diameter as about twice the Bohr model radius. (Image not to scale) A hydrogen atom is an atom of the chemical element hydrogen.The electrically neutral hydrogen atom contains a single positively charged proton in the nucleus, and a single negatively charged electron bound to the nucleus by the Coulomb force.

  6. Liquid hydrogen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid_hydrogen

    To exist as a liquid, H 2 must be cooled below its critical point of 33 K. However, for it to be in a fully liquid state at atmospheric pressure, H 2 needs to be cooled to 20.28 K (−252.87 °C; −423.17 °F). [5] A common method of obtaining liquid hydrogen involves a compressor resembling a jet engine in both appearance and principle.

  7. Tritiated water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tritiated_water

    HTO has a short biological half-life in the human body of 7 to 14 days, which both reduces the total effects of single-incident ingestion and precludes long-term bioaccumulation of HTO from the environment. The biological half life of tritiated water in the human body, which is a measure of body water turn-over, varies with the season.

    The human brain is about 60% fat by weight, far more than any other organ. Essential fatty acids, such as omega 3s, are key to the strength and performance of the brain’s cells.

  9. Histone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Histone

    For example, each human cell has about 1.8 meters of DNA if completely stretched out; however, when wound about histones, this length is reduced to about 9 micrometers (0.09 mm) of 30 nm diameter chromatin fibers. [3] There are five families of histones, which are designated H1/H5 (linker histones), H2, H3, and H4 (core histones).
