Researchers discovered rutherfordium-252, the shortest-lived superheavy nucleus, refining the "island of stability" map and ...

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 ...

Superheavy elements, those with atomic numbers greater than 104, are a fascinating area of study in chemistry and physics. These elements are not only significant for their unique properties but ...

Neutrons become particularly important for ‘superheavy elements’, meaning those with 104 protons or more. Although too large to form in nature, or resist fission decay for long, since the 1960s ...
