  2. Albert Ghiorso - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Albert_Ghiorso

    Ghiorso updates a periodic table in 1961 with the newly discovered element lawrencium while co-discoverers Robert Latimer, Torbjorn Sikkeland and Almon Larsh look on. In the mid-1950s it became clear that to extend the periodic chart any further, a new accelerator would be needed, and the Berkeley Heavy Ion Linear Accelerator (HILAC) was built ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periodic_table

    The periodic table and law are now a central and indispensable part of modern chemistry. The periodic table continues to evolve with the progress of science. In nature, only elements up to atomic number 94 exist; [a] to go further, it was necessary to synthesize new elements in the laboratory.

    Like the periodic table, the list below organizes the elements by the number of protons in their atoms; it can also be organized by other properties, such as atomic weight, density, and electronegativity. For more detailed information about the origins of element names, see List of chemical element name etymologies.

    Henry D. Hubbard in front of his 1924 periodic table wallpaper. Henry D. Hubbard (1870-1943) was a member of the U.S. Bureau of Standards in the 1920s.. He modernized Mendeleev's periodic table and in 1924 he produced a version of the Periodic Table of Elements (called the Periodic Chart of the Atoms) which was distributed to schools and universities.

    Blomstrand included his system in his revised edition of Nils Johan Berlin ' s popular textbook in 1870, and in his own textbooks in 1873 and 1875. Dmitri Mendeleev, later credited with developing the periodic table in widespread use, credited Blomstrand with important early advances leading to the organization of the periodic system. [2]
