Hassium: description
Hassium, is a synthetic element that is not present in the environment at all.
The interested reader should consult the on-line version of Creating Super Heavy Elements for a fascinating insight into research on "super-heavy" atoms.

Hassium: history
Hassium was discovered by Peter Armbruster, Gottfried Münzenber and their co-workers. in 1984 at Gesellschaft für Schwerionenforschung (GSI) in Darmstadt, Germany.. Origin of name: the origin of the name is the Latin word "Hassias" meaning "Hess", the German state..Hassium: isotopes
Hassium: isolation
Isolation: only a few atoms of element 108, hassium, have ever been made. The first atoms were made through a nuclear reaction involving fusion of an isotope of lead, 208Pb, with one of iron, 58Fe.
208Bi + 58Fe → 265Hs + 1n
Isolation of an observable quantity of hassium has never been achieved, and may well never be. This is because hassium decays very rapidly through the emission of α-particles.
