Researchers have long been hunting for a way to make the elusive elements more stable so they can be better studied.

Since then, the periodic table has evolved to reflect over 150 years of scientific development and understanding in chemistry and physics. Today, with 118 known elements, it is widely regarded as one ...

The periodic table, also known as the periodic table of (the) chemical elements, is a tabular display of the chemical elements. It is widely used in chemistry, physics, and other sciences, and is ...

Elements after uranium on the periodic table have been synthesized for the ... laboratory’s influence on the last half-century of physics. Of particular interest is the naming of element 118.

The Standard Model is a kind of periodic table of the elements for particle physics. But instead of listing the chemical elements, it lists the fundamental particles that make up the atoms that make ...
