ABSTRACT

A new method for the identification of the chemical Elements isotopes takes advantage of the isotope Neutron Excess (NE) number. The repre-sentation of the natural isotopes in the Z-NE plane reveals a surprising correspondence between atom’s nuclear and electronic structures. Nuclear directs the atom electronic structure in spite of the alternative set of numbers ruling the two main atom’s compartments. These compartments appear better integrated than actually considered. The Mendeleev periodic table is rooted in the atom’s nuclear structure. Two recent studies arrive to identical conclusions.
