History

On February 1, 2004, the discovery of ununtrium and ununpentium were reported by a team composed of Russian scientists at Dubna (Joint Institute for Nuclear Research), and American scientists at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory.

On September 28, 2004, a team of Japanese scientists at RIKEN declared that they succeeded in synthesizing the element.[1][2]

In May 2006, at the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research, the synthesis of this element was confirmed by another method (the chemical identifying on final products of decay of element).

Name

Ununtrium is a temporary IUPAC systematic element name. Scientists from Japan proposed for the element the name japonium (symbol Jp) or rikenium (Rk) after RIKEN.[3]
