Darmstadtium

Contributor:

We express our deep appreciation for the support extended by the German GSI,听particularly Frau Katharina Becker, in providing the elemental cube. Yes, that is THE VERY Helmholtzzentrum f眉r Schwerionenforschung located in Darmstadt (Darmstadtium). In this facility's accelerator the elements bohrium (1981), meitnerium (1982), hassium (1984), darmstadtium (1994), roentgenium (1994) and copernicium (1996) were first created.

The GSI has also confirmed the existence of elements such as nihonium (2012), flerovium (2009), moscovium (2012), livermorium (2010) and tennessine (2012).

For further exploration, we invite you to visit an interactive Periodic Table in Connecticut,听featuring additional elemental cubes for GSI-discovered elements and much more.听Access the interactive Periodic Table at this link:听.

This element, Darmstadtium 听was named after the city in which it was discovered: Darmstadt, Germany. Below is a video explaining how it was made and a live tour of the location it was made at!
