Message:
It came to my attention whilst not quite doing my homework, that there is no
atom which contains 5 nucleons! Helium has 3 or 4, Lithium has 6, 7 or 8 but
neither seems to want 5. Is this just a big error in my textbook(Introductory
Nuclear Physics, K S Krane, 2nd ed Appendix c.)or is there something so
unstable about that configuration?
Thanks in advance.
