I am writing a page illustrating atomic and ionic radii in Jmol wich uses a 3D periodic table model. So I have found that element nr. 105 (Dubnium, Db) is not being recognized by Jmol 10.00.34 The JmolConstants.java file has the element defined, but it is not shown properly:
- VdW radius is too small, smaller than H  (spacefill)
- atomic radius is zero (spacefill ionic with a proper symbol and charge description in the PDB file)
- label %e shows "Xx" instead of Db

Not that important an element, but it is striking and spoils the periodic table --all the other up to 109 Mt are shown nicely--.
Ok, I know why, but before fixing it, I need to know if there is a Dd element (not a chemist at all :) )

The problem is in org.jmol.adapater.smarter.Atom.java:
   //   Db Dy
   1 << ('d' - 'a') |
   1 << ('y' - 'a'),

*Db* in the comment, *Dd* in the code
