  1. 99 –th Session of the JINR Scintific Council 19 - 20 January 2006 The peculiarities of the production and decay of superheavy nuclei M.G.Itkis Flerov Laboratory of Nuclear Reactions, JINR, Dubna, Russia

  2. The dynamics of the fusion-fission of superheavy nuclei • Experimental results. The peculiarities of the observables,the signatures of the Fusion-Fission/Quasi-Fission processes, multimodal fission phenomena • The recent results on synthesis of superheavy nuclei • The perspectives of the “hot” fusion reaction for the production of superheavy nuclei

  3. Shape evolution in Fusion-Fission reactions • Elastic scattering • Coulomb excitation • Quasi-elastic scattering • Deep-inelastic scattering • Incomplete pulse transfer • Fast-fission • Quasi-fission • Fusion → CN → Fission • Fusion → CN → de-excitation (n,)→ ER In dependence on impact parameter and projectile energy :

  4. Kinematics coincidence method. Double arm time-of-flight spectrometer CORSET

  5. E* 33 MeV Experimental results • The sharp change of the MED triangular shape for the reaction 48Ca+208Pb, where Fusion-Fission process dominates, to the Quasi-Fission shape of MED for the 286112-296116 nuclei. • The wide two-humped mass distribution with high peak of heavy fragment near double magic lead (MH208) for the Quasi-Fission process. • In spite of the dominating role of the Quasi-Fission process for these reactions we assume that in the symmetric region of the fragment masses (A/220) FF process coexists with QF. • The Fusion-Fission mass distribution is asymmetric in shape with mass of the light fragment ML132-134 amu( see on the framings) Mass-energy distributions of the fission fragments of 256102- 296116 nuclei produced in “hot” fusion reactions with 48Ca-projectiles
