Katie McAlpine, a.k.a. Alpinekat, throws down some sweet rhymes and lyrics about isotope beams. If only they had auto-tuned it, it would be a hit. Here’s what she raps about:
The Facility for Rare Isotope Beams, or F-RIB, will collide atomic nuclei together to produce beams of rare isotopes versions of elements that have more or less than the usual number of neutrons in their nuclei. By studying the properties of these isotopes, physicists hope to learn more about the strong nuclear force that binds quarks into protons and neutrons together and how these isotopes affect the thermonuclear evolution of stars. They also hope to use the beams as tumor killers.
