New features in the stability and fission decay of superheavy Thorium isotopes
Superheavy isotopes are highly neutron rich nuclei in the vicinity of neutron drip-line, stabilized by shell effect against the instability due to repulsive component of nuclear force, analogous to superheavy elements similarly stabilized against Coulomb instability. Here we discuss the stability and fission decay properties of such nuclei in the Th region and show that they are stable against ...
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...
متن کاملRotational Properties of Influence of Pairing Correlations
Rotational bands of 252,253,254 No and the fission barriers of 254 No at spin 0¯ h and 20¯ h are calculated with the Hartree-Fock-Bogolyubov theory and the Lipkin-Nogami approximate particle number projection. The SLy4 Skyrme force is used in the particle-hole channel. A zero-range force with and without density-dependence is used in the particle-particle channel. The experimental ground state ...
متن کاملMeasurement of the survival probabilities for hot fusion reactions.
We have studied the fission-neutron emission competition in highly excited (274)Hs (Z=108) (where the fission barrier is due to shell effects) formed by a hot fusion reaction. Matching cross bombardments ((26)Mg+(248)Cm and (25)Mg+(248)Cm) were used to identify the properties of first chance fission of (274)Hs. A Harding-Farley analysis of the fission neutrons emitted in the (25)Mg,26+(248)Cm w...
متن کاملTowards Superheavies: Spectroscopy of 94<Z<98, 150<N<154 Nuclei*
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...
