A new chart for highly charged ions (HCIs) has been proposed, aiming to replicate the conventional periodic table’s ...

The classic design of the table was created by Dmitri Mendeleev in 1863, organizing the then-known elements by number of electrons. Inspired by a graphic that sized the elements to reflect their ...

To expand the periodic table, it might be time to go titanium. A new study lays the groundwork to expand the periodic table with a search for element 120, to be made by slamming electrically charged ...

Still using an old science textbook? It's time to get a new one then, after four new super-heavy elements were added to the periodic table recently. The International Union of Pure and Applied ...

Atoms of a new super-heavy element — the as-yet-unnamed element 117 — have reportedly been created by scientists in Germany, moving it closer to being officially recognized as part of the standard ...

The periodic table - the chart studied by generations of children and chemists - is to get a little more crowded. Scientists yesterday announced they are to add a 'super heavy' element, called ...

In a significant breakthrough for the scientific community, a new element has been confirmed on the periodic table. This discovery holds potential implications for a wide range of scientific fields, ...

The periodic table may soon gain a new element, physicists at Lund University in Sweden announced Tuesday. A team of Lund researchers is the second to successfully create atoms of element 115.

"We just last month finished altering our tables," says Lisabeth Hoffman. "And now. . . " And now? Scientists, rejoice. Hoffman is a chemist who works for Sargent-Welch, a 150-year-old company that ...

Scientists in Japan think they've finally created the elusive element 113, one of the missing items on the periodic table of elements. Element 113 is an atom with 113 protons in its nucleus — a type ...
