Researchers may be nearing the creation of element 120. Element 120 would add a new row to the periodic table. New ion-bombardment technique may be the key to synthesising unbinilium.

University of Liverpool researchers are part of an international research collaboration that has shed light on what happens ...

An international team of astronomers has inspected long-term evolution of quasi-periodic eruptions (QPEs) from a QPE source designated eRO-QPE2. The study found that QPEs from this source are ...

In a study published in the journal Nature, the research team provide insight into the structure of atomic nuclei of fermium (element 100) and nobelium (element 102) with different numbers of neutrons ...

Researchers have long been hunting for a way to make the elusive elements more stable so they can be better studied.

Scientists have found a way to create superheavy elements, leading to groundbreaking possibilities in chemistry.

Scientists might be close to producing a new, incredibly heavy element called "element 120." This element would be so massive that it would need a new row on the periodic table, which is the chart ...

Scientists have discovered a new way of creating superheavy elements by firing supercharged ion beams at dense atoms. The ...

But fusing a titanium beam with plutonium to create livermorium is just a test run for much bigger (or rather, heavier) ...

This last facet of her story is at the core of Dava Sobel’s new book, The Elements of Marie Curie, which follows 2016’s The ...
