Abstract A procedure is proposed to name new chemical elements. After the discovery of a new element is established by the joint IUPAC-IUPAP Working Group, the discoverers are invited to propose a name and a symbol to the IUPAC Inorganic Chemistry Division. Elements can be named after a mythological concept, a mineral, a place or country, a property or a scientist. After examination and acceptance by the Inorganic Chemistry Division, the proposal follows the accepted IUPAC procedure and is then…

IUPAC and the Naming of Elements
TLDR
To face these challenges the CNIC relied successively on the adjudication of the US National Research Council (US NRC) for the naming of promethium in 1948, and then on an ongoing partnership with the International Union of Pure and Applied Physics (IUPAP).
Names and symbols of the elements with atomic numbers 113, 115, 117 and 118 (IUPAC Recommendations 2016)
Abstract A joint IUPAC/IUPAP Working Party (JWP) has confirmed the discovery of the elements with atomic numbers (Z) 113, 115, 117 and 118. In accordance with the 2016 IUPAC guideline for naming new…

Although somewhat in the shadow of the discoveries of new elements, experimental chemical investigations of the heaviest elements have made tremendous progress in the last decades. Indeed, it was…
Failed Discovery Claims
TLDR
The case described in the chapter concerns a failed discovery claim and the announcement in 1999 that a research group in Berkeley had produced element 118 turned out to be based on false data, namely fraud committed by Viktor Ninov, a member of the group.

TLDR
In the table given, the place of element 87 was filled by the symbol of a newly discovered branch product in the actinium series, but in the places of elements 43, 61, 85 and 93 no symbols were inserted, although, as explained in some detail, atoms of all these four elements had been artificially produced.
