Credit: Journal of the American Chemical Society (2025). DOI: 10.1021/JACS.5C00861 Heavy actinids (elements at the bottom of the periodic table, after plutonium) are radioactive, rare and chemically complex, which makes them notoriously difficult to study. Most of the studies carried out in these elements have traditionally carried out a time of a moment or extrapolated…
