In an unprecedentedly precise accelerator experiment, researchers directly observed how some of the heaviest known elements ...

The periodic table is one of the triumphs of science. Even before certain elements had been discovered, this chart could ...

The reason is that the two isotopes of this superheavy element, absent in nature, resulted from an unprecedented union: that of plutonium-244 (Z=94) and titanium-50. The use of titanium-50 in such ...

The Superheavy Tank was designed by Pan-Europe to match the Combine's Ogre Mark I. Since the unit is a manned unit, the CRT treats the unit as a conventional unit, being disabled or destroyed as ...

While other superheavy elements have half-lives measured in milliseconds, the predicted combination of protons and neutrons could make element 120 much more long-lived.

Scientists have discovered a new way of creating superheavy elements by firing supercharged ion beams at dense atoms. The team believes this method could potentially help synthesize the hypothetical ...

What is the heaviest element in the universe? Are there infinitely many elements? Where and how could superheavy elements be created naturally?

Space X successfully catches Falcon Superheavy rocket booster in ‘Mechagodzilla claws’ Elon Musk’s SpaceX Starship has pulled off a spectacular landing after a successful test flight — and ...

When the rare superheavy element does form, it is separated from the rest of the particle debris by magnets in the Berkeley Gas-filled Separator (BGS).

Element 120 would be part of the so-called island of stability, a class of superheavy elements that would survive longer than the superheavy elements discovered so far.

Up to that time, all the discovered superheavy elements are radioactive and unstable; they do not exist for longer than a few microseconds in some cases because of radioactive decay.
