The second edition of "The Chemistry of the Superheavy Elements"
provides a complete coverage of the chemistry of a series of
elements beginning with atomic number 104 - the transactinides or
superheavy elements - including their nuclear properties and
production in nuclear reactions at heavy-ion accelerators. The
contributors to this work include many renowned scientists who,
during the last decades, have made vast contributions towards
understanding the physics and chemistry of these elusive elements,
both experimentally and theoretically. The main emphasis here is on
demonstrating the fascinating studies involved in probing the
architecture of the Periodic Table at its uppermost end, where
relativistic effects drastically influence chemical properties. All
known chemical properties of these elements are described together
with the experimental techniques applied to study these short-lived
man-made elements one atom-at-a-time. The status of theoretical
chemistry and of empirical models is presented as well as aspects
of nuclear physics. In addition, one chapter outlines the
meanderings in this field from a historical perspective and the
search for superheavy elements in Nature.
