Abstract:: The synthesis of superheavy element evaporation residues is described by the product of the capture cross section, fusion probability, and survival probability. Capture cross sections are moderately well known. The fusion probability is the least known with many uncertainties. The formalism for the survival probability is known, but the parameters...

Creator:: McCaleb, Kyle M.
Abstract:: Recent experiments have advanced the current understanding of multi-nucleon transfer(MNT) reactions. Within nuclear science, most nuclear reaction experiments consist of a stationary target material, that is then bombarded by a moving projectile. Overall nuclear reactions can be used to produce a desired isotope. In the case of this particular study...

Creator:: Naik, Radhika
Abstract:: The fusion reaction ²⁰⁸Pb (⁵⁰Ti, xn) ²⁵⁸⁻x Rf (x = 1-3) was studied to determine PCN (probability that the mononucleus system evolves to form a compound nucleus inside the fission saddle point) and to establish the value of Wsur (survival probability) for the given reaction experimentally. The fission excitation function...
