چکیده
293 118 reaction was repeated. No events corresponding to the synthesis of element 118 were observed with a total beam dose of 2.6 x 10 18 ions. The simple upper limit cross sections (1 event) were 0.9 and 0.6 pb for evaporation residue magnetic rigidities of 2.00 T m and 2.12 T m, respectively. A more detailed cross section calculation, accounting for an assumed narrow excitation function, the energy loss of the beam in traversing the target and the uncertainty in the magnetic rigidity of the Z=118 recoils is also presented. Re-analysis of the primary data files from the 1999 experiment showed the reported element 118 events are not in the original data. The current results put constraints on the production cross section for synthesis of very heavy nuclei in cold fusion reactions.

The Glauber approximation for the treatment of heavy-ion scattering, has already been shown to give reliable predictions for the reaction cross section in the particular case of intermediate energy charge-exchange processes. In the present work, we couple a Glauber-type model to microscopic Random Phase Approximation calculations of the charge-exchange excitations of 208Pb. The aim is to solve ...

The fusion cross-sections for 16 O + 208 Pb, measured to high precision, enable the extraction of the distribution of fusion barriers. This shows a structure markedly different from the single–barrier which might be expected for fusion of two doubly– closed shell nuclei. The results of exact coupled channel calculations performed to understand the observations are presented. These calculations ...

We study the (γ, p) reaction on 208Pb leading to 207Pb with a bound pion attached to it in the lowest 1s or 2p pionic levels. The reaction can be made recoilless which optimizes the production cross section. The cross sections obtained are easily measurable and can be larger than 50 per cent of the background from all other reactions where pions are not produced. This makes it a clear case for ...
متن کاملCross - section limits for the 208 Pb ( 86 Kr , n ) 293118 reaction
In April-May, 2001, the previously reported experiment to synthesize element 118 using the Pb(Kr,n)118 reaction was repeated. No events corresponding to the synthesis of element 118 were observed with a total beam dose of 2.6 × 10 ions. The simple upper-limit cross-sections (1 event) were 0.9 and 0.6 pb for evaporation residue magnetic rigidities of 2.00 Tm and 2.12 Tm, respectively. A more det...
