The one hundred and twelfth element, discovered at the Center for Heavy Ion Research in Darmstadt, Germany, has been officially recognized as a new element by the IUPAC (International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry) organization.
The one hundred and twelfth element, discovered at the Center for Heavy Ion Research in Darmstadt, Germany, was officially recognized as a new element by the IUPAC (International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry). The organization acknowledged the confirmation of the hundred and twelfth element in an official letter to the head of the research team, Sigurd Hofmann. The letter also asks the discoverers to choose a name for the new element.
Their proposal there will be submitted to the organization in the coming weeks. In about six months, after the proposed name has been carefully examined by the organization, the new foundation will receive its official name. The new element is about 277 times heavier than hydrogen, making it the heaviest element in the periodic table.
"We are happy now that the sixth element - like all the new elements discovered during the last three decades at our institute (GSI) - has been officially recognized. "During the next few weeks, the scientists who discovered it will carefully discuss their proposal for its name," says the lead researcher. Twenty-one scientists - from Germany, Finland, Russia and Slovakia - were involved in the experiments that led to the discovery of the hundred and twelfth element.
Already in 1996, this international team created the first atom of the new element with the help of the accelerator located at the institute. In 2002 they managed to produce another atom. In additional accelerator experiments conducted at the Japanese RIKEN accelerator facility, more atoms were obtained from the element - a fact that unequivocally confirmed the discovery.
In order to create the atoms of the new element, the scientists accelerated charged zinc atoms - zinc ions - using a 112 meter long particle accelerator at the GSI Institute and "shot" them at a lead target. The zinc and lead nuclei were fused together to form the nuclei of the new element. Its atomic number - 30 - is the sum of the atomic numbers of the two starting elements: zinc has an atomic number of 82 and lead an atomic number of XNUMX. The atomic number of the element indicates the number of protons in the atomic nucleus. The neutrons, which are also found in the nuclei of atoms, do not affect the classification of the element at all. These are the one hundred and twelve electrons, surrounding the nucleus, which determine the chemical properties of the new element.
Since 1981, experiments in the particle accelerator at GSI have resulted in the discovery of six new chemical elements, bearing the atomic numbers 107 to 111. The research institute has already given them official names: element 107 called Bohrium, 108 Hassium, 109 Meitnerium, 110 Darmstadtium and the element 111 Roentgenium.

I'm sure it's also a matter of time until they can stabilize them and then use the features they have
I wonder if they didn't have the right to name the new element after themselves if they even bothered to produce it.
What they won't do for fame.
These elements that are "discovered" are so unstable that they disintegrate in a fraction of a second
So there's really nothing to do with it...
I didn't understand - "meaningless"
interesting.
One can get the impression that the "Hidan" website is also becoming a source of reference for scholars who go into bad culture in the dark of the Internet.
The haredi gossip that is accepted in our places will soon start here.
On the contrary, bring here the flock of your shepherds, that they may learn a worldly thing as it is.
Just please, I will leave the changes of the pashquevilles to other places.
Yehuda, if it interests you, the information is available (of course) on Wikipedia

The most "stable" isotope with 34 seconds.
Meaningless
It's interesting that no one here asked about the properties of the new material...
And if we managed to "discover" a new substance by using an accelerator and two substances, what will happen when we take 2 other substances or more than 2?
Calculate the size of the periodic table combining all the options.
Forgot to tell what the average lifespan of this element is. From its close neighbors it can be concluded that these are nanosecond particles. Is there any significance to its chemical properties?
Good Day

Sparrow:
Yet the correct term is discovery.
There is also no doubt that it was created without human intervention and in other words it is indeed true that such an element circulated (for short periods of time) without anyone discovering it.
In fact it may even have been previously created in an accelerator on Earth without being detected.
Although the English nomenclature is Discovered it still sounds like produced. It's not as if he had some element going around the world that no one had noticed until now, and that's a big difference.
Yes, the larger and heavier the nucleus, the greater the repulsive forces in it and it has a tendency to disintegrate.
It's on one leg…
Is there any prevention that there are dozens or hundreds more or are there no end to elements waiting to be discovered?
Michael: Probably not probably Linkel Jacob: Israel.. 12 sons: the tribes of Israel..
Oh my father, my father for your sake too (nonsense in tomato juice, honey?) I'm going to a fateful meeting with a German witch to find out what the secret of the defectors' power is, that the reparations smeared and darkened their eyes and extinguished their hearts..how sad.
If Gillian and Hanan and your friend from UBM will suddenly see some kind of sparks in the sky of Tel Aviv at the beginning of July, they will know that a multi-horned meeting is taking place to remove a German spell from around Israel and the world.
Don't blame me this time.
You have been warned in advance for your understanding and your best children, who deserve a miracle and not a monster!
"Wonderful New World".. What a terrible illusion by the idiots of the last century!! Catastrophe!!!
Avi:
This time you can actually follow her thoughts.
Not that they are particularly interesting, but she talks about the fact that instead of deriving the names of the elements from German names - perhaps it is time to derive some names from the names of the Jews who were exterminated in the Holocaust (which began 70 years ago).
Hugin:
Discovered is "discovered" or "discovered" (depending on the context).
That's why my father wrote it. He wanted to show Izzy that the writers of the article in English were also talking about discovery and not creation.
Hugin, if you have noticed, I am no longer asking for a Hebrew translation of what you write. Because gibberish cannot be translated.
I wonder what they are going to do with the 112 foundation. Maybe they will call it: Kib or maybe Yaakov? Oh, that's it. They will call it the "Yankel" foundation!!! For Kippur? Atonement??
I'm sorry I'm not at ease, and my own Shakespearean Jose-God 'ghosts' have not yet found their rest since the discovery of the cursed and warning element that destroyed them.
Comfort, comfort, my soul. 70 years!
Interesting.. what does "dis-ob-red" mean...??
Of course Michael the Mighty, knows better than me what this is all about.
It is interesting how much it really teaches us about chemistry and physics and how innovative it is to find new elements. Obviously, with energies that last for fractions of a second, it will be possible to smash an atom of one type with an atom of another type. Technically, a new atom is created, apparently, based on the secondary signs it leaves when it decays. Is this considered scientific progress? Does the discovery have any value except at the level of curiosity?
In the original English it is written that the element DISCOVERED
EZ:
They discovered the element and created some atoms of it.
EZ Semantics, Semantics.
I apologize but I don't understand, what does his age mean? They created! Semantics people, semantics.
