February 17, 2022
MANCHESTER, England, Feb. 17 (TNSJou) -- The University of Manchester issued the following news release on Feb. 16, 2022:

Scientists from The University of Manchester have managed to successfully make a transuranium complex where the central metal, here neptunium, forms a multiple bond to just one other element. Enabling study of such a bonding interaction in isolation for the first time is a key breakthrough for nuclear waste clean-up.
