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

In recent decades, researchers have pushed the boundaries of the periodic table, synthesizing the heaviest elements known to ...

The periodic table of chemical elements, often called the periodic table, organizes all discovered chemical elements in rows (called periods) and columns (called groups) according to increasing atomic ...

Just four years before Mendeleev announced his periodic table, Newlands noticed that there were similarities between elements with atomic weights that differed by seven. He called this The Law of ...

Can you name everything from Ac to Zr? Test your knowledge of the periodic table and see if you can top the leaderboard ...

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

An international team led by scientists of GSI/FAIR in Darmstadt, Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz and the Helmholtz ...

Scientists have found that our bodies need 28 different elements to function properly. These are almost one-quarter of the periodic table and are mainly found in the first four periods.

Scientists at Berkeley Lab are using a new technique to create increasingly heavier elements, with the goal of reaching ...
