Possibilities for the synthesis of superheavy element Z = 121 in fusion reactions

Published in June 18, 2024

The synthesis of superheavy elements Z = 121 was systematically studied through combinations of stable projectiles with Z = 21–30 and targets with half-lives exceeding 50 d. The influence of mass asymmetry and isotopic dependence on the projectile and target nuclei was investigated in detail.
