Abstract: Background: The cross section for forming a heavy evaporation residue in fusion reactions depends on the capture cross section, the fusion probability, P[subscript CN], i.e., the probability that the projectile-target system will evolve inside the fission saddle point to form a completely fused system rather than reseparating (quasifission), and...
Policy analysts designing programs to improve the
efficiency and expand the use of water in the irrigation of
farm lands often enlist benefit-cost analysis as a means of
assessing impacts and feasibility. While on-site comparisons
of costs and benefits are important factors in project

We have studied the fission-neutron emission competition in highly excited ²⁷⁴Hs (Z = 108) (where the
fission barrier is due to shell effects) formed by a hot fusion reaction. Matching cross bombardments
(²⁶Mg + ²⁴⁸Cm and ²⁵Mg + ²⁴⁸Cm) were used to identify the properties of first chance fission of...
