  • FRANCIUM Element Symbol: Fr Atomic Number: 87
    FRANCIUM Element Symbol: Fr Atomic Number: 87 An initiative of IYC 2011 brought to you by the RACI KAYE GREEN www.raci.org.au FRANCIUM Element symbol: Fr Atomic number: 87 Francium (previously known as eka-cesium and actinium K) is a radioactive metal and the second rarest naturally occurring element after Astatine. It is the least stable of the first 103 elements. Very little is known of the physical and chemical properties of Francium compared to other elements. Francium was discovered by Marguerite Perey of the Curie Institute in Paris, France in 1939. However, the existence of an element of atomic number 87 was predicted in the 1870s by Dmitri Mendeleev, creator of the first version of the periodic table, who presumed it would have chemical and physical properties similar to Cesium. Several research teams attempted to isolate this missing element, and there were at least four false claims of discovery during which it was named Russium (after the home country of soviet chemist D. K. Dobroserdov), Alkalinium (by English chemists Gerald J. K. Druce and Frederick H. Loring as the heaviest alkali metal), Virginium (after Virginia, home state of chemist Fred Allison), and Moldavium (by Horia Hulubei and Yvette Cauchois after Moldavia, the Romanian province where they conducted their work). Perey finally discovered Francium after purifying radioactive Actinium-227 from Lanthanum, and detecting particles decaying at low energy levels not previously identified. The new product exhibited chemical properties of an alkali metal (such as co-precipitating with Cesium salts), which led Perey to believe that it was element 87, caused by the alpha radioactive decay of Actinium-227.

  • An Octad for Darmstadtium and Excitement for Copernicium
    SYNOPSIS An Octad for Darmstadtium and Excitement for Copernicium The discovery that copernicium can decay into a new isotope of darmstadtium and the observation of a previously unseen excited state of copernicium provide clues to the location of the “island of stability.” By Katherine Wright holy grail of nuclear physics is to understand the stability uncover its position. of the periodic table’s heaviest elements. The problem Ais, these elements only exist in the lab and are hard to The team made their discoveries while studying the decay of make. In an experiment at the GSI Helmholtz Center for Heavy isotopes of flerovium, which they created by hitting a plutonium Ion Research in Germany, researchers have now observed a target with calcium ions. In their experiments, flerovium-288 previously unseen isotope of the heavy element darmstadtium (Z = 114, N = 174) decayed first into copernicium-284 and measured the decay of an excited state of an isotope of (Z = 112, N = 172) and then into darmstadtium-280 (Z = 110, another heavy element, copernicium [1]. The results could N = 170), a previously unseen isotope. They also measured an provide “anchor points” for theories that predict the stability of excited state of copernicium-282, another isotope of these heavy elements, says Anton Såmark-Roth, of Lund copernicium. Copernicium-282 is interesting because it University in Sweden, who helped conduct the experiments. contains an even number of protons and neutrons, and researchers had not previously measured an excited state of a A nuclide’s stability depends on how many protons (Z) and superheavy even-even nucleus, Såmark-Roth says.

INTRODUCTION Kernforschungs- anlage JUTich JOL - 1226 August 1975 Considerations of the core design of advanced High-Temperature Gas-cooled GmbH IRW Reactors (HTGRs) led to increased demands concerning solid fission product retention in the fuel elements. This would be desirable not only for HTGR power plants with a helium-turbine in the primary circuit (HHT project), but also for the application of HTGRs as a source of nuclear process heat.

  • Darmstadtium, Roentgenium and Copernicium Form Strong Bonds with Cyanide
    Darmstadtium, Roentgenium and Copernicium Form Strong Bonds With Cyanide Taye B. Demissie∗and Kenneth Ruudy March 23, 2017 Abstract We report the structures and properties of the cyanide complexes of three super- heavy elements (darmstadtium, roentgenium and copernicium) studied using two- and four-component relativistic methodologies. The electronic and structural properties of these complexes are compared to the corresponding complexes of platinum, gold and mercury. The results indicate that these superheavy elements form strong bonds with cyanide. Moreover, the calculated absorption spectra of these superheavy-element cyanides show similar trends to those of the corresponding heavy-atom cyanides. The calculated vibrational frequencies of the heavy-metal cyanides are in good agreement with available experimental results lending support to the quality of our calculated vibrational frequencies for the superheavy-atom cyanides. ∗Centre for Theoretical and Computational Chemistry, Department of Chemistry, UiT The Arctic Uni- versity of Norway, N-9037 Tromsø, Norway yCentre for Theoretical and Computational Chemistry, Department of Chemistry, UiT The Arctic Uni- versity of Norway, N-9037 Tromsø, Norway 1 Relativistic two- and four-component density-functional theory is used to demonstrate that the superheavy elements darmstadtium, roentgenium and copernicium form stable complexes with cyanide, providing new insight into the chemistry of these superheavy elements. 2 INTRODUCTION The term heavy atom refers roughly to elements in the 4th -

  • Density Functional Theory Metadynamics of Silver, Caesium and Palladium Diffusion at B-Sic Grain Boundaries ⇑ Jeremy Rabone A, , Eddie López-Honorato B
    Journal of Nuclear Materials 458 (2015) 56–63 Contents lists available at ScienceDirect Journal of Nuclear Materials journal homepage: www.elsevier.com/locate/jnucmat Density functional theory metadynamics of silver, caesium and palladium diffusion at b-SiC grain boundaries ⇑ Jeremy Rabone a, , Eddie López-Honorato b a European Commission, Joint Research Centre, Institute for Transuranium Elements, D-76125 Karlsruhe, Germany b Centro de Investigación y de Estudios Avanzados del IPN (CINVESTAV), Unidad Saltillo, Industria Metalúrgica 1062, Parque Industrial, Ramos Arizpe 25900, Coahuila, Mexico highlights DFT metadynamics of diffusion of Pd, Ag and Cs on grain boundaries in b-SiC. The calculated diffusion rates for Pd and Ag tally with experimental release rates. A mechanism of release other than grain boundary diffusion seems likely for Cs. article info abstract Article history: The use of silicon carbide in coated nuclear fuel particles relies on this materials impermeability towards Received 22 May 2014 fission products under normal operating conditions. Determining the underlying factors that control the Accepted 9 November 2014 rate at which radionuclides such as Silver-110m and Caesium-137 can cross the silicon carbide barrier Available online 4 December 2014 layers, and at which fission products such as palladium could compromise or otherwise alter the nature of this layer, are of paramount importance for the safety of this fuel. To this end, DFT-based metadynam- ics simulations are applied to the atomic diffusion of silver, caesium and palladium along a R5 grain boundary and to palladium along a carbon-rich R3 grain boundary in cubic silicon carbide at 1500 K. For silver, the calculated diffusion coefficients lie in a similar range (7.04 Â 10À19–3.69 Â 10À17 m2 sÀ1) as determined experimentally.
