The chemistry of fermium has only been studied in solution using tracer techniques, and no solid compounds have been prepared.

In 1967, experiments were conducted to compare nobelium's chemical behavior to that of terbium, californium, and fermium.

The transuranic elements from americium to fermium occurred naturally in the natural nuclear fission reactor at Oklo, but no longer do so.

Thermochromatographic chemical isolation could be achieved using the volatile mendelevium hexafluoroacetylacetonate : the analogous fermium compound is also known and is also volatile.

Named for the Italian nuclear physicist who produced the first controlled nuclear chain reaction, fermium was discovered in 1953 by a team of American scientists.

They were then used in the studies of thermal-neutron induced fission of 257 Fm and in discovery of a new fermium isotope 258 Fm.

Still, I decided to email the Oak Ridge National Laboratory, the world's largest producer of fermium, to see what they had.

The transuranic elements from americium to fermium, including berkelium, occurred naturally in the natural nuclear fission reactor at Oklo, but no longer do so.

The transuranic elements from americium to fermium, including curium, occurred naturally in the natural nuclear fission reactor at Oklo, but no longer do so.

The transuranic elements from americium to fermium, including californium, occurred naturally in the natural nuclear fission reactor at Oklo, but no longer do so.
