C. E. Düllmann, GSI Darmstadt, gives insight into the chemistry of short-lived, superheavy atoms
The Chemistry of Superheavy Elements
Studying Superheavy Elements
M. Block, GSI Darmstadt, gives an insight into the physics of short-lived, superheavy atoms
Long-lived, Superheavy Elements
Measurements of the shell effect in atomic nuclei help understand above which mass extremely heavy artificial elements no longer decay
Elements 113, 115, 117, and 118 Named
The proposed names are nihonium, moscovium, tennessine, and oganesson
Elements 114 And 116 Named
The IUPAC recommended new proposed names for the latest heavy elements to be added to the periodic table
Welcome to Stability Island
New experimental set-up designed to detect superheavy elements helps probe the predicted island of stability around element 114.
Happy Birthday Darmstadtium!
The element darmstadtium (Ds) was first created on November 9, 1994, at the Institute for Heavy Ion Research (GSI) in Darmstadt, Germany
