Tennessine was produced by the bombardment targets of berkelium-249 by calicium-48 ions at the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research in Dubna (Russia) by a Russian-American collaboration in 2010. The rare berkelium target was produced at the high-flux reactor at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (Tennessee, USA). Tennessine was named after the US state of Tennessee. The name recognizes the contribution of the Oak Ridge National Laboratory and Vanderbilt University in that state to the discovery of the element 117.
