Nuclear Ledger Coupling Scans

Isotope Identity Two-Parameter Scan

Mass number and proton count jointly set neutron count. Exact arithmetic here means exact results for the stated model inputs; measured inputs still carry uncertainty and significant-figure limits.

Fourteen and six leave eight neutrons

Mass number 14 minus proton count 6 leaves neutron count 8.

Twelve and five leave seven neutrons

Mass number 12 minus proton count 5 leaves neutron count 7.
