Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 61st year, we have over 378,000 sequences, and we’ve reached 11,000 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

%N Atomic numbers in the Mendeleyev-Moseley-Seaborg periodic table of elements read downwards columns, right to left.
%C A permutation of the natural numbers from 1 to 118.
%C The number of terms in the columns, also ordered right to left is: 7, 7, 6, 6, 6, 6, 6, 6, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2.
%C This is a consequence of finding 2*7=14, 6*6=36, 10*4=40, 14*2=28 elements with outer shells of s, p, d, and f-electrons.
%C Acronymic name: CMMSPT.
