Ununpentium Element number 115 will only be called ununpentium until its Russian discoverers come up with a better name.

Out go thorium, uranium and plutonium, along with a whole bestiary of synthetically-created elements - rutherfordium, seaborgium, ununpentium, einsteinium - which only ever exist momentarily as part of a lab experiment, before radioactively decomposing.

Researchers in Sweden have reported strong evidence for the formation of element 115, temporarily called ununpentium.

Element 115, officially labeled ununpentium as dictated by international chemistry naming rules, is neither a natural nor practical thing.

This research team isn’t the first to create element 115, which is currently known as ununpentium.
