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

Creating a superheavy element through nuclear fusion is like winning the lottery, says nuclear chemist Christoph Düllmann, who leads the superheavy element chemistry research at the GSI.

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 ...

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 ...
