1945G. T. Seaborg in Chem. & Engin. News XXIII. 2192/1 This rare-earth-like series begins with actinium in the same sense that the ‘lanthanide’ series begins with lanthanum. On this basis it might be termed the ‘actinide’ series. 1950F. Gaynor Encycl. Atomic Energy 14 Recently the discovery of two new actinide elements, berkelium and californium has been announced. Ibid., The actinides and the rare earth elements show a striking similarity of extra-nuclear electron structure. 1958R. D. Connor in O. R. Frisch Nucl.
