  Khuyagbaatar, J.; Yakushev, A.; Düllmann, Ch.E.; Ackermann, D.; Andersson, L.-L.; Block, M.; Brand, H.; Even, J.; Forsberg, U.; Hartmann, W.; Herzberg, R.-D.; Heßberger, F.P.; Hoffmann, J.; Hübner, A.; Jäger, E.; Jeppsson, J.; Kindler, B.; Kratz, J.V.; Krier, J.; Kurz, N.; Lommel, B.; Maiti, M.; Minami, S.; Rudolph, D.; Runke, J.; Sarmiento, L.G.; Schädel, M.; Schausten, B.; Steiner, J.; De Heidenreich, T. Torres; Uusitalo, Juha; Wiehl, N.; Yakusheva, V. (EDP Sciences, 2016)

  The fission process still remains a main factor that determines the stability of the atomic nucleus of heaviest elements. Fission half-lives vary over a wide range, 10−19−1024 s. Present experimental techniques for ...

• Stability and synthesis of superheavy elements: Fighting the battle against fission – example of 254No 

  Lopez-Martens, A.; Henning, G.; Khoo, T.L.; Seweryniak, D.; Alcorta, M.; Asai, M.; Back, B.B.; Bertone, P.; Boilley, D.; Carpenter, M.P.; Chiara, C.J.; Chowdhury, P.; Gall, B.; Greenlees, Paul; Gurdal, G.; Hauschild, K.; Heinz, A.; Hoffman, C.R.; Janssens, R.V.F.; Karpov, A.V.; Kay, B.P.; Kondev, F.G.; Lakshmi, S.; Lauristen, T.; Lister, C.J.; McCutchan, E.A.; Nair, C.; Piot, J.; Potterveld, D.; Reiter, P.; Rowley, N.; Rogers, A.M.; Zhu, S. (EDP Sciences, 2016)

  Superheavy nuclei exist solely due to quantum shell effects, which create a pocket in the potential-energy surface of the nucleus, thus providing a barrier against spontaneous fission. Determining the height of the ...

• Exploring the stability of super heavy elements: First Measurement of the Fission Barrier of 254No 

  Henning, G.; Lopez-Martens, A.; Khoo, T.L.; Seweryniak, D.; Alcorta, M.; Asai, M.; Back, B. B.; Bertone, P.; Boilley, D.; Carpenter, M. P.; Chiara, C. J.; Chowdhury, P.; Gall, B.; Greenlees, Paul; Gurdal, G.; Hauschild, K.; Heinz, A.; Hoffman, C. R.; Janssens, R. V. F.; Karpov, A. V.; Kay, B. P.; Kondev, F.

  Abstract. The gamma-ray multiplicity and total energy emitted by the heavy nucleus 254 No have been measured at 2 di erent beam energies. From these measurements, the initial distributions of spin I and excitation ...

• Gamma rays as probe of fission and quasi-fission dynamics in the reaction 32S + 197Au near the Coulomb barrier 

  Pulcini, A.; Vardaci, E.; Kozulin, E.; Ashaduzzaman, M.; Borcea, C.; Bracco, A.; Brambilla, S.; Calinescu, S.; Camera, F.; Ciemala, M.; Canditiis, B. de; Dorvaux, O.; Harca, I. M.; Itkis, I.; Kirakosyan, V. V.; Knyazheva, G.; Kozulina, N.; Kolesov, I. V.; La Rana, G.; Maj, A.; Matea, I.; Novikov, K.; Petrone, C.; Quero, D.; Rath, P.; Saveleva, E.; Schmitt, C.; Sposito, G.; Stezowski, O.; Trzaska, Wladyslaw; Wilson, J. (IOP Publishing, 2018)

  Compound nucleus fission and quasi-fission are both binary decay channels whose common properties make the experimental separation between them difficult. A way to achieve this separation could be to probe the angular ...

• Rotational properties of nuclei around 254 No investigated using a spectroscopic-quality Skyrme energy density functional 

  Shi, Yue; Dobaczewski, Jacek; Greenlees, Paul (American Physical Society, 2014)

  Abstract. Background: Nuclei in the Z≈100 mass region represent the heaviest systems where detailed spectroscopic information is experimentally available. Although microscopic-macroscopic and self-consistent models have ...
