For some years Michael Thoennessen at Michigan State University has developed and curated a database of isotope discovery - i.e. when, where, how and by whom was each isotope of each element discovered. He has just emailed out about a revamp of the website with new design and new features. The site is here.
One of the new features (at least, I think this is new) is that you can search discoveries on various fields. I tried searching for my name ("P. D. Stevenson") and lo and behold you can find the four isotopes that I "helped" discover. By helped, I mean I was coauthor on the discovery paper, as I contributed to the theoretical analysis. I didn't set foot in the lab where the experiment actually took place.
Here is the copy-and-paste of the results table:
Search results:found 4 isotopes
Newly discovered isotopes will be included after the references are entered in the NSR database.
