Just a question edit

Hi, I was wondering why the article begins by saying, "Silicon (14Si) has 14 known isotopes, with mass numbers ranging from 22 to 36," but then the paragraphs ends by talking about 43Si, and the table below lists more than 14 isotopes, many with mass numbers >36. Are these isotopes somehow "not known"? Thanks. 198.16.243.131 (talk) 20:03, 9 February 2018 (UTC)Reply

Was vandalism, reverted. Thank you! Double sharp (talk) 06:42, 10 February 2018 (UTC)Reply

Details on specific isotopes edit

I added the section on 29Si in an effort to draw attention to the related phenomenon of A-centers, in addition to the info already in the main Si article. My bad for the misinterpretation (and also the mistakes on notation). It was of interest to me because A-center is currently an orphan, though at this point I'm having difficulty finding anywhere else it would make sense to mention. It probably needs someone with a background in the field.

Does anyone know of other relevant information about the isotopes of Silicon that go beyond just listing them? It seems like isotopes of tin is in a similar situation. Reconrabbit (talk|edits) 13:56, 15 December 2023 (UTC)Reply

The source you cited did not support the claims. I'd suggest linking directly from new content in Crystallographic defect.
As for other isotopes, you can probably look through Google Scholar. Silicon-28 was used in pure form in the Avogadro project. You may be surprised by the amount of coverage on some specific radioisotopes, such as 34Si. –LaundryPizza03 (d) 04:49, 16 December 2023 (UTC)Reply
Thank you. I'll do that and find some sources on the isotopes. I will leave the crystallographic details to an expert - my knowledge only goes as far as knowing the different unit cell types. Reconrabbit (talk|edits) 05:17, 16 December 2023 (UTC)Reply
