Transuranic Elements and their Production Transuranic elements are elements that have an atomic number greater than 92. Transuranic elements have been synthesised in nuclear reactors or in high-energy particle accelerators. Neptunium and plutonium were the first transuranic elements to be synthesised in 1940 by Glenn Seaborg’s research team in the USA. Uranium 238 is bombarded with neutrons produced by the nuclear fission of U-235. Initially an isotope of uranium (U-239) forms which decays
