- Wikipedia, Sept. 9, 2012(Mendelevium is a synthetic element with the symbol Md (formerly Mv) and the atomic number 101. A metallic radioactive transuranic element in the actinide series, mendelevium is usually synthesized by bombarding einsteinium with alpha particles. Element 101 was the ninth transuranic element synthesized.)

The history and use of our earth's chemical elements, c2006:p. 333 (mendelevium; before the experiment by Albert Ghiorso and his team of chemists that produced mendelevium, the team had speculated that this element number 101 must be somewhat similar to the element thulium located just above it in the lanthanide series. Because they did not have a name for this new element, they referred to it as "eka-thulium"; it was formally named mendelevium in 1955)
