Bohrium: historical information

Bohrium was discovered by Peter Armbruster, Gottfried Münzenber and their co-workers. at 1981 in Gesellschaft für Schwerionenforschung (GSI) in Darmstadt, Germany.. Origin of name: the origin of the name is Niels "Bohr", the Danish physicist.

Scientists from the USSR reported their production of an isotope of bohrium in 1976 and this work was substantiated by German workers later.
