The group of rare earth elements (REEs) comprises a total of 17 elements, all of which possess similar chemical properties. In addition to the two lightest elements, scandium and yttrium, the group ...

These days, we would call them proprietary blends. But in the late 1500s and early 1600s, individual alchemists called the ...

Using the XRISM space telescope, scientists spotted faint emissions of the elements in remnants of the Cassiopeia A supernova ...

The UC Davis‑led ARPA‑E project hopes to demonstrate selective, low‑pH recovery and onsite concentration of critical rare earth elements from difficult wastewaters — reducing chemicals and energy, ...

If you were to take every element in the periodic table and order them by how abundant they are in the Universe, you'd find something a little bit surprising. The most common element is hydrogen, ...

The two most promising potential element candidates are element 119, tentatively named ununennium, and element 120, aka unbinilium. These elements are so massive that they do not fit in any of the ...

To expand the periodic table, it might be time to go titanium. A new study lays the groundwork to expand the periodic table with a search for element 120, to be made by slamming electrically charged ...

The five elements theory is a holistic approach to health and overall well-being. It’s been a part of numerous alternative medicine traditions, including traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), for ...
