What is Nucleus: Definition and 420 Discussions

nuCLEus is a proposed mixed-used development complex planned for the Gateway District of downtown Cleveland, Ohio, United States. The project won unanimous approval from the Cleveland Planning Commission in November 2014, and recently received schematic design approval from the City of Cleveland in March 2019 after a thoughtful redesign to fit the city's growing population and needs in downtown Cleveland.Robert L. Stark of Cleveland-based Stark Enterprises is the lead developer on the nuCLEus.
The $300M mixed-use project will encompass approximately two million square feet in the heart of the city at the intersection between East Fourth Street, Prospect Avenue and Huron Road, connecting many of the venues in the Central Business District.
nuCLEus will serve as a mixed-use, vertically integrated space with a mix of Class A office space, retail, restaurants and residential living divided between two distinct, 24 floor towers.

    Positron to replace proton as the nucleus of an atom

    I know that the positron and electron have the same mass, which allows them to annihilate, and I know how solve the 2 body Schrodinger for a standard hydrogen atom to get the orbitals. My question is why the math works out the way it does. Is there an "intuitive" (I use that word cautiously)...

    Alpha Rays and the Movement of Atoms' Nucleus
