Blue toruses = 11 protons
Red toruses = 8 nuclear electrons
Atomic number of Li (3) = protons (11) - nuclear electrons (8)
Lithium 11 decays by electron emission (left side) of Lithium 11 decay form to transitional Be11 and
trans Be11 decays by neutron emission of trans Be11 decay to Beryllium 10 (half life = 1.51x106 y) nucleus.
Beryllium 10 decays by electron emission (left side) of Beryllium 10 decay form to Boron 10 (stable)
