Ununtrium (Template:PronEng), or eka-thallium, is the temporary name of a synthetic element in the periodic table that has the temporary symbol Uut and has the atomic number 113. It comes from the alpha decay (release of a helium nucleus) of ununpentium. Following periodic trends it is expected to be a soft, silvery highly reactive metal, rather like sodium.

[edit] History
On February 1, 2004, the discovery of ununtrium and ununpentium were reported by a team composed of Russian scientists at Dubna (Joint Institute for Nuclear Research), and American scientists at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory.
On September 28, 2004, a team of Japanese scientists at RIKEN declared that they succeeded in synthesizing the element.[1][2]
In May 2006, at the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research, the synthesis of this element was confirmed by another method (the chemical identifying on final products of decay of element).
[edit] Name
Ununtrium is a temporary IUPAC systematic element name. Scientists from Japan proposed for the element the name japonium (symbol Jp) or rikenium (Rk) after RIKEN.[3]
