Meitnerium's atomic number is 109 and its symbol is Mt. It is an extremely radioactive synthetic element, an element not found in nature but can be created in a laboratory. The most stable known isotope, meitnerium-278, has a half-life of 4.5 seconds.

Named after Lise Meitner. It was discovered on August 29, 1982, by a German research team at the Institute for Heavy Ion Research. Other than nuclear properties, no properties of meitnerium or its compounds have been measured; this is due to its extremely limited and expensive production and the fact that meitnerium and its parents decay very quickly. Properties of meitnerium metal remain unknown and only predictions are available.

This display is contained within crystal clear Lucite acrylic.

Please note that this item might be classified as hazardous material in certain countries. We suggest checking local guidelines to ensure compliance before placing your order.

Safety

We get asked about the radioactivity and overall safety of the periodic tables/cubes from time to time. These are legitimate concerns and we wanted to address those concerns here. Although there are several elements in the cubes that are dangerous or toxic, the acrylic and glass ampules make the products safe to handle and store.

The average American is exposed to 0.034 mrem/hr from background radiation (300 mrem/year). In other words, a person will get three times the radiation from natural background radiation which includes the sun, food, radon, and the environment, than they will from holding a radioactive element in one of our Lucite Acrylic displays.
