Europium. Sample of the rare earth metal Europium
Europium. Sample of the rare earth metal Europium (Eu), that is becoming oxidised as it is exposed to air. The rare earth metals, or rare earth elements, are a set of seventeen chemical elements in the periodic table, specifically the fifteen lanthanides plus scandium and yttrium. Europium is a hard silvery-white metallic element. It is used in television screens and fluorescent light bulbs

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a sample of the rare earth metal Europium (Eu) in all its glory. The metallic element, known for its hard silvery-white appearance, is depicted here in a studio shot against a sleek chrome background. As the air gradually interacts with the Europium, it begins to oxidize, resulting in an intriguing transformation that adds depth and texture to this still life composition. Europium belongs to a group of seventeen chemical elements called rare earth metals or rare earth elements. This exclusive set includes fifteen lanthanides along with scandium and yttrium. With its unique properties, Europium finds applications in various technological advancements such as television screens and fluorescent light bulbs. The photograph not only captures the beauty of this elemental specimen but also highlights the fascinating process of oxidization taking place before our eyes. It serves as a reminder of how even something as seemingly static as a metal can undergo changes when exposed to different environmental conditions. With its meticulous attention to detail and vibrant depiction, this image from Science Photo Library offers viewers an opportunity to appreciate both the aesthetic appeal and scientific significance of Europium within the realm of mineralogy and chemistry.
