Fermium was found by Albert Ghiorso an co-workers in 1952 in the debris from the nuclear test - first thermonuclear bomb experiment - in the Enawetak atoll. In 1954 fermium was prepared also at the Berkeley Radiation Laboratories; the Nobel Institute of Physics (Sweden) had contributions to this discovery. After this many other isotopes of Fm were discovered.
