What periodic table group does this belong to? At the moment, the entry in the table for this is blank. The Anome 12:30 24 Jun 2003 (UTC)

Lanthanides, which I think have no group number. Or do they? I'm not a chemist, just an interested layman... -- Schnee 12:34 24 Jun 2003 (UTC)

To my knowlege there is no group number for them. Same with actinides. -fonzy

I'd propose to always put in "none" for Lanthanides and Actinides, then. -- Schnee 14:52 24 Jun 2003 (UTC)

It could be good to mention the "magnetocaloric" effect that is rarely found in Nature except I think in Gadolinium and alloys. It is used in superconductive refrigerators lately. -- User:mtodorov_69 11:31 17 Feb 2006 (UTC)
