Fermium Magnets

A dazzling Fermium design. Fermium is a synthetic element with symbol Fm and atomic number 100. It is a member of the actinide series. It is the heaviest element that can be formed by neutron bombardment of lighter elements, and hence the last element that can be prepared in macroscopic quantities, although pure fermium metal has not yet been prepared.

Fm is the periodic table element symbol for fermium.

The orbitals are swirling in Storistir to make holiday ornaments! 100 FM sounds like it should be a radio station, but element 100, Fm, was named after Enrico Fermi, who created the world's first nuclear reactor at an underground squash court in Chicago.

100 FM sounds like it should be a radio station, but Fermium was named after Enrico Fermi, who created the world's first nuclear reactor at an underground squash court in Chicago. Element 100 was discovered in the fallout of the "Ivy Mike" testing of a hydrogen fusion bomb.

The actinides are not only radioactive, but they have been used in warfare. Little Boy was an uranium bomb dropped on Hiroshima and Fat Man was a plutonium bomb dropped on Nagasaki.
