Russian-Armenian physicist discovers new chemical element

A group of Russian physicists has discovered two new chemical elements that will be registered in the Periodic Table of Elements of Dmitry Mendeleyev.

International experts have already confirmed that the substances are new ones and will be registered as 114th and 116th elements in the Mendeleyev table.

The experiments have been conducted under the supervisions of Russian-Armenian academician Yuri Hovhannisyan and Vladimir Utenkov.

The names of the two super-heavy elements have yet to be decided. The elements will be added to Mendeleyev’s tables once they are given names.

“The commission is examining so that the names are universally accepted, relevant to the tradition, planets, to the geographical place of the discovery or to the names of outstanding scientists,” Yuri Hovhannisyan has said.
