Table of nuclides one. Dotted borders mean that a nuclide has a nuclear isomer, and their color is represented the same way as for their normal counterparts. Table of nuclides A table of nuclides or chart of nuclides is a two-dimensional graph in which one axis represents the number of neutrons and the other represents the number of protons in an atomic nucleus. Each point plotted on the graph thus represents the nuclide of a real or hypothetical chemical element. This system of ordering nuclides can offer a greater insight into the characteristics of isotopes than the better-known periodic table, which shows only
Alternative periodic tables each element has with respect to another element in the table. Other tables aim to emphasize the chemical element isolations by humans over time. Charles Janet's Left step periodic table (1928) is considered to be the most significant alternative to the traditional depiction of the periodic system. It organizes elements according to orbital filling (instead of valence) and is widely used by physicists. Compared to the common layout, the Left step table has these changes: A modern version of the periodic table is constructed by Valery Tsimmerman, named the ADOMAH periodic table (2006). Its structure is based on the four
