Bohrium Production

The main reaction for Bohrium synthesis are:

²⁰⁹Pb + ⁵⁴Cr -> ²⁶²Bh + ¹n

²⁴⁹Bk + ²²Ne -> ²⁶⁶Bh + 5¹n

²⁴⁹Bk + ²²Ne -> ²⁶⁷Bh + 4¹n

Currently, not many atoms of Bohrium were synthesized. Recently, at the Paul Scherrer Institute in Switzerland the synthesis of the Bohrium oxychloride BhClO₃ was reported.
