Scientists confirm existence of superheavy element 114 by Asian News International But scientists hope the elements will lead them to a superheavy element that's stable enough to study. Table for two by Price, Sean / Science World 2 seconds for element 113--are lengthy for atoms of such high masses, the findings give credence to along-standing notion that there are many so-called superheavy elements yet to be created that could prove to be much longer-lived, says LLNL chemist Kenton J.
