    This article misidentifies beryllium as a rare-earth metal in the first paragraph. The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) regrets this error. Beryllium, while exotic, is not a rare-earth element and should not be thought to share any properties with rare-earth elements. We apologize for any confusion.
