89 (number)
89 (eighty-nine) is the natural number following 88 and preceding 90. In mathematics 89 is: * the 24th prime number, following 83 and preceding 97. * a Chen prime. * a Pythagorean prime. * the smallest Sophie Germain prime to start a Cunningham chain of the first kind of six terms, . * an Eisenstein prime with no imaginary part and real part of the form . * a Fibonacci number and thus a Fibonacci prime as well. The first few digits of its reciprocal coincide with the Fibonacci sequence due to the identity ::\frac=\sum_^\infty=0.011235955\dots\ . * a Markov number, appearing in solutions to the Markov Diophantine equation with other odd-indexed Fibonacci numbers. ''M''89 is the 10th Mersenne prime. Although 89 is not a Lychrel number in base 10, it is unusual that it takes 24 iterations of the reverse and add process to reach a palindrome. Among the known non-Lychrel numbers in the first 10000 integers, no other number requires that many or more iterations. The palindrome r ...

Actinium
Actinium is a chemical element with the symbol Ac and atomic number 89. It was first isolated by Friedrich Oskar Giesel in 1902, who gave it the name ''emanium''; the element got its name by being wrongly identified with a substance André-Louis Debierne found in 1899 and called actinium. Actinium gave the name to the actinide series, a group of 15 similar elements between actinium and lawrencium in the periodic table. Together with polonium, radium, and radon, actinium was one of the first non-primordial radioactive elements to be isolated. A soft, silvery-white radioactive metal, actinium reacts rapidly with oxygen and moisture in air forming a white coating of actinium oxide that prevents further oxidation. As with most lanthanides and many actinides, actinium assumes oxidation state +3 in nearly all its chemical compounds. Actinium is found only in traces in uranium and thorium ores as the isotope 227Ac, which decays with a half-life of 21.772 years, predominantly e ...

89 BC
__NOTOC__ Year 89 BC was a year of the pre-Julian Roman calendar. At the time it was known as the Year of the Consulship of Strabo and Cato (or, less frequently, year 665 ''Ab urbe condita'') and the Fourth Year of Zhenghe. The denomination 89 BC for this year has been used since the early medieval period, when the Anno Domini calendar era became the prevalent method in Europe for naming years. Events By place Roman Republic * Consuls: Gnaeus Pompeius Strabo and Lucius Porcius Cato. * Social War: ** Roman forces under Lucius Porcius Cato are defeated by the Italian rebels in the Battle of Fucine Lake, Cato is killed. ** The Roman army of Gnaeus Pompeius Strabo decisively defeats the rebels in the Battle of Asculum. * ''Lex Plautia Papiria'' extends citizenship to all Italians who applied for it within 60 days.
