	MSN Encarta - Elements
		Elements were at one time believed to be the fundamental substances but are now known to consist of a number of different elementary particles.
		When the elements are arranged in the order of their atomic numbers (a number proportional to the net positive charge on the nucleus of an atom of an element), elements of similar physical and chemical properties occur at specific intervals (see Periodic Law).
		These groups of elements with similar physical and chemical properties are called families, examples of which are the alkaline earth metals, rare earth elements, halogens, and the noble gases.

	Transuranium element - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In chemistry, transuranium elements (also known as transuranic elements) are the chemical elements with atomic numbers greater than 92, the atomic number of uranium.
		Of the elements with atomic numbers 1 to 92, all but four (43-technetium, 61-promethium, 85-astatine, and 87-francium) occur in easily detectable quantities on earth, having stable, or very long half life isotopes, or are created as common products of the decay of Uranium.
		Transuranic elements that have not been discovered, or have been discovered but are not yet officially named, use IUPAC's systematic element names.

	Atom (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		Other elements have been artificially created, but they are usually unstable and spontaneously change into stable natural chemical elements by the processes of radioactive decay.
		The mass number, atomic mass number, or nucleon number of an element is the total number of protons and neutrons in an atom of that element, because each proton or neutron essentially has a mass of 1 amu.
		Therefore, elements with the same number of valence electrons are grouped together in the periodic table of the elements.

		Half-lives for elements in the island of stability may range from seconds to minutes, while half-lives for other superheavy elements may be measured in micro- or nanoseconds.
		The existence of the island of stability was shown in 1998 with the discovery of the superheavy element 114.
		Discovering new superheavy elements proves long-held nuclear theories regarding the existence of the “island of stability” and the ultimate limits of the periodic table of the elements.

	Superheavy elements (July 2004) - Physics World - PhysicsWeb
		By last year a total 114 elements were known, and earlier this year the author and co-workers reported the synthesis of two new "superheavy" elements.
		Superheavy elements allow nuclear physicists to explore concepts such as "magic numbers" and the "island of stability", which help us understand why some nuclei are more stable than others.
		As a result, these elements will leave a clear experimental signature: a daughter nucleus that is lighter than its parent by two protons and two neutrons, followed by a granddaughter nucleus that is lighter by four protons and four neutrons, and so on.

		The laboratory creation of new elements became a major enterprise of scientists and military leaders in 1940 with the synthesis of neptunium and later, of plutonium, the fission fuel of the bomb that destroyed Nagasaki.
		The scientists who made seaborgium knew that their new element contained 106 protons in its nucleus, and by definition, was the 106th element in the periodic table of the elements.
		Simply knowing the place of an element in the periodic table is not always sufficient to account for its chemical properties, which is why the GSI investigation of seaborgium (which falls within Column 6 of the periodic table, under chromium, molybdenum and tungsten) is an important step for chemistry.

	Element 115 - Ununpentium, Superheavy Elements 114, 115 and 118 discovered
		Element 115, the key to understanding how the ultra-secret "Black World" has created aircraft capable of manipulating gravity and space/time, has been identified, and the recent discovery of element 118, which decayed into element 114, further helps identify the possibilities.
		These heavier, stable elements literally have their own gravity A field around them, in addition to the gravity B field that is native to all matter.
		One of the most significant aspects of the new elements is that their decay sequence is consistent with theories that predict an "island of stability" for atoms containing approximately 114 protons and 184 neutrons.

	Ununpentium - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Ununpentium (eka-bismuth) is the temporary name of an unconfirmed synthetic superheavy element in the periodic table that has the temporary symbol Uup and has the atomic number 115.
		On February 1, 2004, the synthesis of ununpentium and ununtrium were reported in Physical Review C by a team composed of Russian scientists at Dubna University's [1] Joint Institute for Nuclear Research [2], and American scientists at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory.
		The team reported that they bombarded americium (element 95) with calcium (element 20) to produce four atoms of ununpentium (element 115).

	Theoretical aspects (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		The possible existence of elements with such properties never occurred to nuclear physics scientists ; they keep thinking in terms of conventional stable atom, while the true could be different : SHE are nuclear accumulators of energy, a property which unites chemistry (electronics shell reactivity) with nuclear physics.
		As nuclear accumulators of energy, superheavy elements should have very interesting applications, since the controlled liberation of the nucleon from the SHE could be applied to generate very high intensity of current.
		For nuclear weapons, superheavy elements easily produced in laboratories could be the nuclear weapon of poor nations in search of a cheap and efficient weapon to liberate their country from occupation.

		The special thing about the superheavy element 115 is that it is so compact that the internal nuclear force, gravity A, extends beyond the bounds of the nucleus, therefore being "accessible to amplification".
		This is accomplished by converting it to the unstable element 116, which emits antimatter that is then somehow (he isn't very specific on the video) converted into beams of gravity waves and electromagnetic energy.
		I was also very surprised to find that it has been postulated that certain superheavy elements might possibly have nuclear fields reaching out into the area of the atom normally reserved for the electrons.

		JINR physicists and their longtime collaborators from Lawrence Livermore National Lab in the US produced 4 atoms of the new superheavy element by striking a target of americium-243 atoms with a beam of calcium-48 ions.
		By bringing together element 95 with element 20, four atoms of element 115 were created.
		In the past decade or so even-Z superheavy nuclei---112, 114, 116, 118---were sought at Dubna chiefly because of the facility's intense beams of Ca-48 and the ready availability of even-Z actinide targets.

		The most important attribute of this heavier, stable element is that the gravity A wave is so abundant that it actually extends past the perimeter of the atom.
		There are elements with higher atomic numbers which are stable, even though they don't occur naturally on earth and we can't synthesize them in particle accelerators.
		Element 115 will be designated as "Ununpentium" according to IUPAC guidelines and from here on will be referred to by its periodic abbreviation, "Uup".

	Quest for superheavy nuclei (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		The superheavy elements mark the limit of nuclear mass and charge; they inhabit the upper right corner of the nuclear landscape, but the borderlines of their territory are unknown.
		In another frontier of superheavy element research, in quantum chemistry, relativistic effects in molecules containing heavy elements have been studied intensively since the mid 1970s, when it became apparent that they have to be included in the description of compounds containing heavy elements.
		However, experimental tests of relativistic effects and of anticipated deviations from the periodic table of the elements in the superheavy region are extremely difficult because the single atom chemistry requires half-lives of the order of one second, i.e., much longer than those of the heaviest elements found so far.

		The excitement generated by the discovery stems largely from the stability of the new element, the nucleus of which is believed to consist of 114 protons and 184 neutrons.
		Unlike other manufactured heavy elements, element 114 is relatively long-lived, surviving for 30 seconds—as opposed to mere microseconds—before decaying.
		The significance of element 114’s long life is the support it gives to the theory that the more densely packed the nucleus of heavy elements, the more stable they are.

		The error on that paper is that nothing is said about the reason why SHE may be used as an energy source.
		We have to consider alchemy treatises in order to find the right answer : SHE can only exist as chemical elements, therefore the unique path of synthesis is using a chemical / metallurgical process as described in old treatises prior 1700.
