We interrupt your normal coverage of magnetic monopole searches today to bring you something much more cool from well.. the same location! I was jazzed to find out yesterday that the next monopole project I was going to write about was done at a stunningly pretty location Gran Sasso, Italy. (picture 1) Then, thanks to +Oliver Thewalt I found out about a very interesting study done regarding a possible time dependence of the decay rates of radioactive isotopes. So much for the pretty location I thought, but the science is incredibly interesting. Then, while reading up on the research this morning I found out that one of the studies[2] was performed at none other than the very same lab in Gran Sasso. And we're back to where we started and I get to include a pretty picture with the post! OK, OK enough with the cool coincidences and the small world of science for today. So, here's what's going on in a nutshell. Radioactive elements decay in a...
