- Nobelium is named after Alfred Nobel, the inventor of dynamite. It is a man-made element made in low quantities. It is a part of the actinide series. Until now twelve isotopes have been determined among them 259 No is the most stable isotope. Nobelium is highly radioactive and is a synthetic metal. It can be produced by a nuclear bombardment that is by irradiating a californium-249 target with carbon-12 ions.
