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 ...

With this success, a new pathway for the synthesis of superheavy nuclei has emerged. A pathway that should allow the production of new nuclei beyond oganesson-294 (Z=118), the heaviest nucleus ever ...
