Description
The synthesis of new superheavy elements beyond oganesson (Z=118) requires fusion reactions with projectile nuclei with proton numbers larger than that of 48Ca (Z=20), which has been successfully employed for the synthesis of elements with Z=112-118. In such reactions, fusion is drastically hindered by fast non-equilibrated dynamical processes. Attempts to produce nuclei with Z=120 using the 64Ni+238U, 58Fe+244Pu, 54Cr+248Cm, and 50Ti+249Cf reactions have been made, which all result in larger...[Show more]
