Elements discovered by Berkeley Lab physicists include astatine, neptunium, plutonium, curium, americium, berkelium*, californium*, einsteinium, fermium, mendelevium, nobelium, lawrencium*, dubnium, and seaborgium*.
Those elements listed with asterisks (*) are named after the University, Professors Lawrence and Seaborg.
The element Californium was discovered in 1950 in the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory in California by a team led by Albert Ghiorso. It was named after the state of California and has atomic number 98.
Yes, element 116 has been named "Livermorium" (Lv) in honor of the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, where research on superheavy elements was conducted. Julius Robert Oppenheimer was the laboratory's founder, but no element has been named specifically for him.
Ensteinium was discovered by a team of scientists led by Albert Ghiorso at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory in California in 1952. It was named in honor of physicist Albert Einstein.
Many different scientists actually. For example, Einsteinium was named by Albert Ghiorso and fellow co-workers at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. There was a lot of controversy over naming the element Rutherfordium. See the related link. No, dude. Einsteinium was named by Albert EINSTEIN. (Hence the name EINSTEINium.)
Cf in the periodic table is named after the University of California, Berkeley, where the element was first discovered in 1950. The element californium was named after the state of California in the United States where the university is located.
The element lawrencium (symbol Lr) was named after Ernest O. Lawrence, who invented the cyclotron in 1932. Lawrence was an American physicist and the founder of the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory.
Both Berkelium and Californium were named after the University of California, Berkeley. Those elements (and several others) were discovered at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, which is managed and operated by the university.
The element Californium was discovered in 1950 in the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory in California by a team led by Albert Ghiorso. It was named after the state of California and has atomic number 98.

The 98th element on the periodic table is known as Californium (Cf). It was first made in 1950 at the University of California Radiation Laboratory, in Berkeley. The 97th element on the periodic table was also named after it's original production site. Berkelium (Bk) was discovered in 1949, also at the University of California Radiation Laboratory, in Berkeley.
Ensteinium was discovered by a team of scientists led by Albert Ghiorso at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory in California in 1952. It was named in honor of physicist Albert Einstein.
That element is Berkelium, symbol "Bk" and atomic number 97, a radioactive element in the heavy "actonoid" series. Berkelium is named after the Californian university town of Berkeley where it was first synthesized. Scientists at the University of California's Ernest Orlando Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (simply known as "Berkeley Lab") first synthesized Berkelium in 1949. They created it by bombarding a small piece of Americium ("Am" atomic number 95) with alpha particles within a cyclotron.
Berkelium and Californium are named for the University (city) of Berkeley and the state.The elements Lawrencium and Seaborgium are named after professors Ernest Lawrence and Glenn Seaborg.
The elements and their symbols that were discovered by Glenn T. Seaborg's group were: plutonium (94) americium (95), curium (96), berkelium (97), californium (98), einsteinium (99), fermium (100), mendelevium (101), nobelium (102), and seaborgium (106).
The name berkelium id derived from Berkeley Laboratory, University of California.
