    About the Element with the atomic number 61
    by Luigi Rolla and Lorenzo Fernandes
    The search for the yet unknown elements of the 5th period that, according to Moseley's studies have the atomic numbers 61 and 72, has received attention in the last decade.
    The Problem about the former element (note: Maybe they meant "latter") has been solved in the year 1923 by Coster and Hevery by the discovery of Hafnium. The Element 61 though is not yet discovered.

      Germany was sort of the center of the scientific world until the Nazis decided they didn't _want_ to be the center of the scientific world if it meant admitting that most of their best science was done by Jews. The Americans and Brits decided they didn't care as much and were happy to take over leadership in science if Germany was done with it. The standard language of science has been English ever since.

Make a video on the heavier elements beyond the 100 elements: what is the highest atomic number for which current science can predict its properties? What do we expect to find at the "island of stability"? Is there a stable element with a higher atomic number?

    5:20 "which can interact with the acid, to form assault" - I guess some interactions with acid could be considered assault :)

    Promethium was used in the betavoltaic battery. The electrons directly drove PN junctions. Using a phosphor to create light to drive a PV is used in the optovoltaic battery.
    For interstellar missions Carbon 14 is being considered because of its very long half life.

    Promethium has a very special place in the measurement of basis weight in light weight paper production. Usually less than 100 gsm. Krypton does not have the resolution for very precise measurement. Process control systems have been using it since the early 90s. How would I know? Because I was there.
    PS using more krypton does not improve the resolution only the signal to noise. Beta decay is not a continuous stream of electrons.

    Finally a video from the smart side of CZcams! I love the name of Promethium but it is impossible to get. In US and EU U235 and U238 can owned I think.I want to see a video of White P and Mg reacting some day.
