Livermorium is one of the last elements on the periodic table, named after Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in California. It is predicted to have oxidation states of -2, +2, and +4. Its longest-lived isotope, Livermorium 293, has a half life that is somewhere between 53 and 70 milliseconds. It was first synthesized in 2000 by a joint Russian and American team. Recently, a new method has been discovered to make Livermorium that could lead to heavier elements being formed. Traditionally, the rare isotope Calcium 48 is accelerated, and then crashes into an actinide to create super-heavy elements.  However, for even heavier elements to be formed, you would need large quantities of elements with extremely short half-lives. This becomes less and less feasible as you get heavier and heavier. So a team of researchers at berkeley found a new way to create Livermorium using Titanium-50. They managed to create 2 atoms of Livermorium over 22 days. While this isn't very efficient yet, it is proof that you can form super-heavy elements without using Calcium 48. This could lead to the formation of new, undiscovered, heavy elements.

Livermorium doesn't have any uses outside of research for now.
