Scientists create 116th element on periodic table; ‘possibility’ for heaviest element 120 to emerge too

In a bid to discover the heaviest element on earth— element 120 or Unbinilium, scientists at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory produced two atoms of element 116 (livermorium), using a titanium particle beam. Element 120 to date is identified as an “hypothetical chemical element,” which, once discovered, will be the heaviest on the planet. Experts …

New Element Created In A Lab Experiment

Physicists might be one step closer to creating element 120, the heaviest element ever known, thanks to a recent breakthrough. Scientists at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) have successfully produced two atoms of livermorium, element 116, using a titanium particle beam. This achievement is a crucial first step towards synthesising the elusive element …
