The periodic table of elements has long been a cornerstone of chemistry, but what if we told you that the elements we know ...

The periodic table of elements, or Mendeleev’s table, was created in 1869 by Russian chemist Dmitri Mendeleev. This table organizes all known chemical elements by their atomic number ...

Scientists have found that our bodies need 28 different elements to function properly. These are almost one-quarter of the periodic table and are mainly found in the first four periods.

Massive stars create heavy elements from lighter ones through fusion, eventually forging an iron core over millions of years.

These findings confirmed that atomic nuclei can decay by losing individual protons, not just clusters like alpha particles.

The discovery of a metal-rich star packed with both light and heavy elements hints at exotic stellar explosions and the role ...

the authors reflect on the chemistry and physics that drive the periodic table of the elements. This includes aspects of periodic trends, relativistic electronic-structure theory, nuclear ...

Argonne and Fermilab have receive $3.2M from ARPA-E to develop accelerator tech for nuclear waste transmutation.

A primordial element, and one of the first additions to Mendeleev's periodic table ...
