In an experiment conducted at the Berkeley National Laboratory (United States) with the participation of a team from the IPHC, scientists have for the first time produced livermorium-290 (Z=116), ...

I picked up Racing Green by Kit Chapman, which I really enjoyed! So when I was interested in picking up more nonfiction, ...

After a breakdown in US-Russia relations, Riken finds itself ahead of its rivals. And Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory chases element 120 ...

This reaction resulted in the formation of Nihonium, accompanied by the emission of one neutron. 2 Flerovium (Fl) is a superheavy element (SHE) with atomic number 114. Experimental studies have shown ...

In the search for superheavy elements, element 112 was a stepping stone towards the 'islands of stability'. Sigurd Hofmann now relates the steps that led to its 'creation' and detection.

Some, like carbon, oxygen, and nitrogen, make up our bodies and the air we breathe. Yet there is also a class of elements so unstable they can only be made in a lab. These superheavy elements are the ...

The Nishina Center promotes researches on the synthesis of superheavy elements with one prime example being nihonium, researches in the fields of magic numbers, nucleosynthesis in the universe, and ...

However, as the positively charged protons repel each other, nuclei with too many protons are at risk of splitting—a challenge in the production of new superheavy elements. Certain combinations ...
