the international Union of pure and applied chemistry officially confirmed the discovery of four new elements of the periodic table. The table will soon be added to the elements under the numbers 113, 115, 117 and 118. For the right to the opening of the 113th element has already erupted dispute between the Russian and Japanese physicists.

According to The Verge, the opening 115, 117 and 118 elements intended collaboration between scientists from the joint Institute for nuclear research of the Russian Dubna, Lawrence Livermore national laboratory and oak ridge national laboratory, USA. Last in the opening of the 118th element was not involved.

But in the case of the 113th element, the priority of discovery given to the Japanese Institute of physical and chemical research RIKEN. Physicists from Dubna disagree and claim that you received the item, one year earlier in 2003. This recorded the events with him about a hundred times. While the Japanese — only four times.

while New elements are named ununtrium (113th), ununpentium (115th), ununseptium (117th) and ununoctium (118), lists N+1. In the near future they will be given more specific names.
