What elements did Enrico Fermi discover?

Enrico Fermi is credited with discovering a number of synthetic radioactive elements as a result of his experiments with neutron bombardment of uranium in the 1930s. While initially thought to have produced transuranium elements, his experiments mainly resulted in fission, although this did eventually lead to the discovery of new elements later identified as isotopes.
