Loosec Posted June 27, 2006 Report Share Posted June 27, 2006 You do realise ofcourse that the numbers associated with certain elements (Uranium-238) describe the total amount of Protons AND Neutrons of the considered Isotope. It makes no sense to write the name of the element and then print the atomic number afterwards. Unless ofcourse you like redundancy and don't really care about what isotope you are talking about.

Guest Azrael Posted June 27, 2006 Report Share Posted June 27, 2006 Xenium is not an element. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loosec Posted June 27, 2006 Report Share Posted June 27, 2006 Then I can't quite see the reasoning in previous posts and the craving for a number. Xenium is an excellent name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Mad] Posted June 27, 2006 Report Share Posted June 27, 2006 Then I can't quite see the reasoning in previous posts and the craving for a number. Xenium is an excellent name.Craving for a number: because it sounds cool... (oh, well, and because there is this substance called Elirium-115... ) The 122 is the number of the first successfull experiment with Xenium Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loosec Posted June 28, 2006 Report Share Posted June 28, 2006 Thank you, I feel much better about this now. When I do think about it for a while it makes almost no sense that highly advanced aliens should use a raw material as their primary powersource; they obviously refined several interesting raw materials and fused them in some extraordinary state and form to make it as portable and powerful as possible. -yey!
