The continuation of the periodic table up to Z = 172. The chemistry of superheavy elements
@article{Fricke1970TheCO, title={The continuation of the periodic table up to Z = 172. The chemistry of superheavy elements}, author={Burkhard Fricke and Walter Greiner and James Thomas Waber}, journal={Theoretica chimica acta}, year={1970}, volume={21}, pages={235-260} }
The chemical elements up toZ = 172 are calculated with a relativistic Hartree-Fock-Slater program taking into account the effect of the extended nucleus. Predictions of the binding energies, the X-ray spectra and the number of electrons inside the nuclei are given for the inner electron shells. The predicted chemical behaviour will be discussed for all elements betweenZ = 104-120 and compared with previous known extrapolations. For the elementsZ = 121–172 predictions of their chemistry and a…
