So the periodic table has expanded again with the addition late last year of four new superheavy elements, bringing the known total up to 118.

What do ancient artefacts, fragments from celestial bodies, microchips and gunshot residue have in common?

“In a dream I saw a table where all the elements fell into place as required. Awakening, I immediately wrote it down on a piece of paper.” -Dmitri Mendeleev

For the first time, researchers have detected a single hydrogen atom using high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

A theory of atoms was formulated 2,500 years before English physicist John Dalton developed modern atomic thoery. Indian sage and philosopher Acharya Kanad was inspired upon seeing fallen grains of rice.

The ultimate dream of nanotechnology is to be able to manipulate matter atom by atom. To do that, we first need to know what they look like.

Australian researchers have been able to place a single phosphorous atom with extreme accuracy inside a silicon crystal, making a working transistor.
