Nuclear drip line 'dripped' out of the nucleus, hence giving rise to the term "drip line". Drip lines are defined for protons, neutrons, and alpha particles, and these all play important roles in nuclear physics. The nucleon drip lines are at the extreme of the proton-to-neutron ratio: at p:n ratios at or beyond the drip lines, no stable nuclei can exist. The location of the neutron drip line is not well known for most of the nuclear chart, whereas the proton and alpha drip lines have been measured for a wide range of elements. Nuclear stability is limited to those combinations of protons
