The legacy of Glenn Seaborg and the synthetic element Seaborgium

Journey to Berkeley to explore the creation of Seaborgium, a synthetic element named in honour of the legendary chemist Glenn Seaborg. This video provides a visual look into the world of heavy, man-made elements.

Filmed at the University of California, Berkeley, this presentation explores the synthetic element Seaborgium. The production features insights from Darleane Hoffman and Alexander Pines at UC Berkeley, alongside support from the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory.

The visual presentation uses an abstracted atomic symbol, with a background inspired by imagery from early particle accelerators, such as those found at CERN and Fermilab.
