Americium (ˌæməˈrɪsiəm) is a rare element that has the symbol Am and atomic number 95. A radioactive metallic element, americium is an actinide that was obtained in 1944 by Glenn T. Seaborg who was bombarding plutonium with neutrons and was the fourth transuranic element to be discovered. It was named for the Americas, by analogy with europium.

  • A radioactive button like this is inside most smoke detectors. A trace of americium creates charged particles that betray the smoke. Americium is thus the only man-made element available in grocery stores.
