Jacob A. Marinsky ( 1918) as well as L. E. Glendenin and Charles D. Coryll ( 1912) detected the element at Oak Ridge. The first conclusive proof was in uranium piles. Uranium fission gives rise to fragments with nuclei of atomic number 61.

Aft er many false reports of its occurrence in nature, promethium was finally identified in 1947 in fission productsby Jacob A. Marinsky, Lawrence E. Glendenin, and Charles D. Coryell. It was named after the Greek mythological character Prometheus who stole fire from the heavens. No stable isotopes of Pm exist, its longest lived isotope being Pm-145 (half life 17.7 years), but...

There remained one last truant element 61, a member of the lanthanides ( rare earths ) that had confused great chemists for more than a century (chapter 1). In 1945, Jacob Marinsky (1918- ) and Larry Glendenin (1918- ), working with Charles D. Coryell (1912-71) at Oak... 

In 1939, an element subsequently named francium, number 87, was discovered in Paris by Marguerite Percy, and in 1940 Segre discovered astatine, element 85. The final piece of the jigsaw puzzle, element 61, promethium, was finally obtained as a byproduct in a nuclear reaction. The discoverers on this occasion were Jacob Marinsky, Lawrence Glendenin, and Charles Coryell. ...

Discovery Charles D. Coryell, Jacob A. Marinsky and Lawrence E. Glendenin discovered Pm in fission products from a nuclear reactor at Oak Ridge, Tennessee in 1945 (1943). Pm was isolated by the ion-exchange technique. It was the last discovery of a rare earth element.
