According to a latest study published in Physical Review Letters, a team of physicists from University of Toronto made a bold prediction: a new form of stable element that consists of only Up (u) and ...

Keepers of precise periodic tables, it’s time to make some changes. The International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry Commission on Isotopic Abundances and Atomic Weights (IUPAC CIAAW) has issued ...

The periodic table is one of the triumphs of science. Even before certain elements had been discovered, this chart could successfully predict their masses, densities, how they would link up with other ...

Chapman decided he needed to brush up on the superheavy elements—the ones after number 103, lawrencium. “And the more I looked into these elements, the more fascinated I became by the politicking that ...

This ACS/NSF colloquium was held on Wednesday, November 20 at the National Academy of Sciences in Washington, DC. The event was generously supported by a grant (CHE-1937824) from the National Science ...

Researchers used a particle accelerator and co-precipitation to study the chemical reactivity of single rutherfordium atoms. Such experiments will continue the advancement of relativistic chemistry ...
