Alternative periodic tables quantum numbers of the electron configuration, hence it has a four-dimensional base. In Theodor Benfey's periodic table (1964), the elements form a two-dimensional spiral, starting from hydrogen, and folding their way around two peninsulars, the transition metals, and lanthanides and actinides. A superactinide island is already slotted in. The Chemical Galaxy (2004) is organized in a similar way. Timothy Stowe's physicist's periodic table is three-dimensional with the three axes representing the principal quantum number, orbital quantum number, and orbital magnetic quantum number. Helium is again a group 2 element. Paul Giguère's 3-D periodic table consists of 4 connected billboards with
Alternative periodic tables each element has with respect to another element in the table. Other tables aim to emphasize the chemical element isolations by humans over time. Charles Janet's Left step periodic table (1928) is considered to be the most significant alternative to the traditional depiction of the periodic system. It organizes elements according to orbital filling (instead of valence) and is widely used by physicists. Compared to the common layout, the Left step table has these changes: A modern version of the periodic table is constructed by Valery Tsimmerman, named the ADOMAH periodic table (2006). Its structure is based on the four
