Many of the more than 100 radioactive isotops that he and his coworkers have discovered have found widespread practical applications in medicine, agriculture, industry and space exploration. He is the co-diicoverer of ten transuranium elements and the author of the ‘actinide’ concept.' The page contains several revisions and edits by Seaborg.
