Best Answer

Scientists make synthetic elements by forcing nuclear particles to crash into one another.

ex) plutonium is made by bombarding nuclei of Uranium-238 with neutrons ina nuclear reactor.

Additional info.

Particle accelerator: move atomic nuclei faster and faster until they have reached very high speeds. If they hit each other with enough energy, the particles sometimes combine into a single nucleus.
