  2. Albert Ghiorso - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Albert_Ghiorso

    One of Ghiorso's breakthrough instruments was a 48-channel pulse height analyzer, which enabled him to identify the energy, and therefore the source, of the radiation. During this time they discovered two new elements (95, americium and 96, curium ), although publication was withheld until after the war.

  3. Moscovium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moscovium

    Moscovium is an extremely radioactive element: its most stable known isotope, moscovium-290, has a half-life of only 0.65 seconds. [9] In the periodic table, it is a p-block transactinide element. It is a member of the 7th period and is placed in group 15 as the heaviest pnictogen.

  4. Pnictogen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pnictogen

    All pnictogens up to antimony have at least one stable isotope; bismuth has no stable isotopes, but has a primordial radioisotope with a half-life much longer than the age of the universe (209 Bi); and all known isotopes of moscovium are synthetic and highly radioactive.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isotopes_of_moscovium

    Moscovium (115 Mc) is a synthetic element, and thus a standard atomic weight cannot be given. Like all synthetic elements, it has no known stable isotopes. The first isotope to be synthesized was 288 Mc in 2004. There are five known radioisotopes from 286 Mc to 290 Mc. The longest-lived isotope is 290 Mc with a half-life of 0.65 seconds.

  9. Superheavy element - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superheavy_element

    The heaviest element known at the end of the 19th century was uranium, with an atomic mass of about 240 (now known to be 238) amu. Accordingly, it was placed in the last row of the periodic table; this fueled speculation about the possible existence of elements heavier than uranium and why A = 240 seemed to be the limit.
