If you think you have seen the above headline somewhere before, then you probably have. In 1999, nuclear physicists at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory in the US claimed to have produced three ...

An experiment begun in 2002 has produced three atoms of the heaviest superheavy element yet—element 118—according to a team of researchers from Russia and the U.S. On the basis of the number of ...

New research suggests that the periodic table may once again reach 118. A team of nuclear chemists from the United States and Russia has announced the brief appearance of the unnamed element, the ...

A U.S. and Russian team said Monday that it had created element 118, the heaviest known to date. It is the fifth ultra-heavy element produced by the team at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory and ...

A team of Russian and American scientists has stretched the margins of the periodic table by creating a new element, No. 118, which is heavier than any other yet produced, the scientists reported this ...

Reach for your Magic Marker: The periodic table has lost an element. Researchers at Lawrence Berkeley (Calif.) National Laboratory have retracted their claim from 2 years ago that they had created the ...

A team of Russian and American scientists has stretched the margins of the periodic table by creating a new element, No. 118, which is heavier than any other yet produced, the scientists reported this ...

After claims of its discovery were retracted in 2002, a new team of researchers says it has produced a few scant atoms of the heaviest element yet, called simply element 118 after the number of ...

LIVERMORE — By firing atoms of metal at another metal, Russian and American scientists reported Monday, they created a new element — No. 118 on the Periodic Table — that is the heaviest substance ...

Oganesson is a radioactive, artificially produced element about which little is known. It is expected to be a gas and is classified as a non-metal. It is a member of the noble gas group. The element, ...

NB: The paper reporting the discovery of element 118 was formally retracted by its authors in 2002. The retraction followed an investigation into alleged scientific misconduct by one of the authors, ...
