Dissipation-fluctuation dynamics of fusion-fission reactions and synthesis of superheavy elements
نویسندگان
چکیده
Dynamical treatments of fission processes are briefly reviewed with an emphasis on the strong dissipation or friction for collective motions of nuclei in high excitation. The theories are applied to synthesis of superheavy elements. Characteristic features of formation and surviving are discussed with reference to possible incident channels. Theoretical prediction are presented on favorable incident channels and on optimum energies for synthesis of the element Z = 114.

Entrance-channel potentials in the synthesis of the heaviest nuclei
Entrance-channel potentials in nucleus-nucleus collisions, relevant for the synthesis of superheavy elements, are systematically studied within a semi-microscopic approach, where microscopic nuclear densities of the colliding spherical or deformed nuclei are used in semi-classical expressions of the energydensity functional. From experimental data on fusion windows evidence is found that the ex...
متن کاملTheoretical Predictions of Residues Cross Sections of Superheavy Elements
Dynamical reaction theories are reviewed for synthesis of superheavy elements. Characteristic features of formation and surviving are discussed with reference to possible incident channels. Theoretical predictions are presented on favorable incident channels and on optimum energies for synthesis of Z = 114. 1. Introduction Superheavy elements around Z = 114(or 126) and N = 184 have been believe...

Realistic fusion barriers are calculated in a macroscopic-microscopic model for several soft-fusion heavy-ion reactions leading to heavy and superheavy elements. The results obtained in such a realistic picture are very different from those obtained in a purely macroscopic model. For reactions on 208 Pb targets, shell effects in the entrance channel result in fusion-barrier energies at the touc...

In our previous article [1], we presented a simple phenomenological model for the description of production cross sections of superheavy nuclei in a wide range of excitation energies including cold, warm and hot fusion. The model assumes that the fusion hindrance, observed in cold fusion reactions where only one neutron is emitted prior to the formation of evaporation residue (ER), can be expla...

The structure of nuclei that lie at the edges of stability in the nuclear landscape hold the most discovery potential for new physics. While nuclei along the proton and neutron drip-lines reveal stellar nucleosynthesis pathways, very heavy high-Z nuclei, whose fragility stems from enhanced Coulomb repulsion, lead us towards superheavy physics. The island of superheavy nuclei predicted to lie at...
