New Superheavy Element Synthesis

Interesting post found on Matrix today, :-

New Superheavy Element Synthesis Points to Long-Sought ‘Island of Stability’ you can read more about this in the scientific American article published on 24th September

Seems interesting, as I read a paper a few years ago suggesting element 120 was present in Przybylski's Star. In fact, a number of papers on arXiv have suggested some interesting properties and chemistry.

Here is a link to the Matrix Physics Room where I found the link mentioned above

Abundances in Przybylski's star ( per-zib-ill-skee)

This looks like a really interesting paper, published on Oxford Academic [1], examining, what appears to be the unusual composition of Przybylski's star [2]. According to Wikipedia [3]* is in the “Southern constellation of Centaurus”

• See [4] for a better reference.
  

There seems to be quite a few heavier element detected.

• I need a better academic references for this, which could be at [4].
