Chemists and physicists behaving badly: The shadow side of two elemental discoveries

Fontani, Marco Orna, Mary Virginia Costa, Mariagrazia

Abstrak

It is appropriate to recall that 2019 was the year dedicated to the Periodic Table. But when we speak about false elements – in the aftermath of the celebrations marking this year, – we are greeted most warmly, but with some puzzlement, as to how it came to mind to celebrate “Mendeleev’s creature” in such a peculiar way, that is, by commemorating elements that never existed. In the course of many years, we have discovered and collected a great number of discoveries of simple bodies that sooner or later turned out to be detours or false tracks.
