Are radioactive elements made in a laboratory?
What an interesting question. The answer is however complex.It is possible to make small amounts of some radioactive elements or radioactive isotopes of some elements in a laboratory (usually involving a nuclear pile or an accelerator). For instance the element Plutonium is made this way.(Other radioactive elements are produced naturally by the radioactive decay of heavier radioactive elements)However, making a radioactive element or isotope from scratch requires the application of an enormous amount of energy. The place where all elements heavier than the element Iron (Fe - Atomic number 26) are made is in stellar explosions, the death of stars 8 or more times more massive than our Sun, called "supernovas".It is in supernova explosions that the radioactive elements are made.
