Fusion-fission and quasifission of superheavy systems withZ=110–116formed inCa48-induced reactions
Background: In heavy-ion-induced reactions the mechanism leading to the formation of the compound nucleus and the role of quasifission is still not clear.Purpose: Investigation of the quasifission process of superheavy composite systems with $Z=110\text{\ensuremath{-}}116$ and comparison with properties of fusion-fission and quasifission of lighter composite systems.Method: Mass and energy distributions of fissionlike fragments formed in the reactions $^{48}\mathrm{Ca}+^{232}\mathrm{Th}$, ${}^{238}\mathrm{U}$, ${}^{244}\mathrm{Pu}$, and ${}^{248}\mathrm{Cm}$ at energies near the Coulomb barrier have been measured using the double-arm time-of-flight spectrometer CORSET at the U-400 cyclotron…
Fusion-fission and quasifission of superheavy systems with Z=110-116 formed in Ca 48 -induced reactions
Background: In heavy-ion-induced reactions the mechanism leading to the formation of the compound nucleus and the role of quasifission is still not clear. Purpose: Investigation of the quasifission process of superheavy composite systems with Z = 110-116 and comparison with properties of fusion-fission and quasifission of lighter composite systems. Method: Mass and energy distributions of fissionlike fragments formed in the reactions 48Ca +232 Th, 238U, 244Pu, and 248Cm at energies near the Coulomb barrier have been measured using the double-arm time-of-flight spectrometer CORSET at the U-400 cyclotron of the FLNR JINR. Results: The most probable fragment masses as well as total kinetic ene…
Investigation of the reaction 64Ni+238U being an option of synthesizing element 120
This study is concerned with the search for entrance channels suitable to synthesize elements with Z > 118. Mass-energy distributions as well as capture cross-sections of fission-like fragments have been measured for the reactions 64Ni + 238U → 302120 and 48Ca + 238U → 286112 at energies near the Coulomb barrier. Compound nucleus fission cross-sections were estimated from the analysis of mass and total kinetic energy distributions. The cross-section drops three orders of magnitude for the formation of the compound nucleus with Z = 120 obtained in the reaction 64Ni + 238U compared to the formation of the compound nucleus with Z = 112 obtained in the reaction 48Ca + 238U at an excitation ener…
Neutron and gamma-ray emission in the proton induced fission of 238U and 242Pu
Abstract Average prescission Mpren and postscission Mpostn neutron multiplicities as well as average γ-ray multiplicity 〈Mγ〉, average energy 〈Eγ〉 emitted by γ-rays as a function of mass and total kinetic energy (TKE) of fission fragments were measured in proton induced reactions p+ 242 Pu→ 243 Am , p+ 238 U→ 239 Np at proton energy Ep=13, 20 and 55 MeV.
