History
In December, 2000 the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research (Dubna, Russia) published results that described the discovery in 2000 of decay of the isotope 292Uuh, which was produced in the reaction of 248Cm with 48Ca. It has a half-life of about 18 milliseconds (0.018 seconds) and decayed into 288Uuq (ununquadium, element 114). On May 11, 2001, the institute reported synthesizing a second atom, and that the properties confirmed a region of "enhanced" stability.
In 2004 in 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).
