History
There are four known isotopes of flerovium with mass numbers 286-289.
The longest-lived is 289 and it has a half-life of 2.6 seconds. Nuclear theory
suggests that isotope 298, with 184 neutrons, should be much more stable
Despite several attempts to make element 114, it was only in 1998 that a
team led by Yuri Oganessian and Vladimir Utyonkov at the Joint Institute
40 days. A few more two atoms were produced the following year.
