Synthesis of superheavies: State of affairs and outlooks

arXiv:0807.2537 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevC.78.034610

Abstract

Nuclear reactions leading to formation of new superheavy elements and isotopes are discussed in the paper. ``Cold'' and ``hot'' synthesis, fusion of fission fragments, transfer reactions and reactions with radioactive ion beams are analyzed along with their abilities and limitations. Several most promising reactions are proposed for experimental study.
