In artificial transmutation, atoms of one element are bombarded in the laboratory with high energy particles to convert them into other elements.For example, nitrogen-14 can be converted to fluorine-18 by artificial transmutation. This was achieved by Ernest Rutherford in 1919, when he bombarded nitrogen gas with alpha particles to produce the unstable isotope fluorine-18.
