Comment Some more info (Score 1) 83
Just to answer a few questions about the element:
113 has not been sythesised, but 112 has been. This information appeared in the last issue of Science, and the only information not mentioned is that the atom hangs around for about 30 seconds, which is pretty cool, considering 112 only existed for about 280 ms before decaying into something else.
About the naming: the element will assume the name ununquadium (as explained at
http://www.chemicalelements.com/sup/sysname.html) until it is given an official name by IUPAC (assuming there is no conflict between them and ACS, of course).
