Times Cited Count:3 Percentile:25.85(Chemistry, Analytical)A technique to utilize radioisotopes of Nb and Ta was developed for chemical studies of element 105, Db, by coupling a gas-jet transport system to the RIKEN gas-filled recoil ion separator (GARIS). The short-lived Nb and Ta were produced with nuclear reactions using a F beam whose energy was the same as that to produce Db. Then, they were separated with GARIS and extracted to a chemistry laboratory with the gas-jet transport system. By changing only magnetic field of GARIS and inserting an energy degrader and a shutter for recoil ions, we could deliver the Nb and Ta to a chemistry device for Db without changing other experimental conditions.

Times Cited Count:167 Percentile:97.27(Physics, Multidisciplinary)An isotope of the 113th element, 113, was produced in a nuclear reaction with a Zn beam on a Bi target. We observed six consecutive decays following the implantation of a heavy particle in nearly the same position in the semiconductor detector, in extremely low background condition. The fifth and sixth decays are fully consistent with the sequential decays of Db and Lr both in decay energies and decay times. This indicates that the present decay chain consisted of 113, Rg (Z = 111), Mt (Z = 109), Bh (Z = 107), Db (Z = 105), and Lr (Z = 103) with firm connections. This result, together with previously reported results from 2004 and 2007, conclusively leads the unambiguous production and identification of the isotope 113, of the 113th element.

A new hassium isotopes Hs is directly produced for the first time. The experiment was performed at the linear accelerator (RILAC) facility in RIKEN (the Institute of Physical and Chemical Research) from Jun. 19 to 25. In the 25-h irradiation of Fe on Pb and 46-h irradiation of Fe on Pb, 8 decay chains and 1 decay chain, respectively, were observed. All decay chains were assigned to subsequent decays from Hs. The half-life of Hs is 0.60 ms. In this experiment, the total beam dose was ions for Fe and ions for Fe. The production cross section corresponding to 8 decay events and 1 decay chain was deduced to be 21 pb and 1.6 pb by assuming that the transmission of the system is 80%.

New Decay Properties of Hs and its -decay daughter nuclei were studied by using reactions of Pb(Fe,2n) and Pb(Fe,n) by using a gas-filled recoil ion separator, GARIS at RIKEN. We observed three correlated events in irradiation of Fe on Pb, and eight events in irradiation of Fe on Pb. A half-life was deduced to be 0.90. We assigned these eleven events to be the decays of Hs. We found different decay-chain events of Hs from a previous report. One is a long-lived -decay of Sg with 180ms of half-life. Another is a long-lived -decay of Rf with 10.4s of half-life. For Sg and Rf, the decay of such a long-lived state have not been reported. These are the first observations of isomerism in Sg and Rf.

RIKEN Accelerator Progress Report, Vol.42, P. 15, 2009/00
In 2003-2007, we had performed an experiment to synthesize an element 113 by a Bi Zn reaction using a gas-filled recoil ion separator (GARIS) at RIKEN Nishina-Center. In a total of 241 days of net irradiation time experiment, two decay chains were observed and assigned from an isotope 113. The cross section of the Bi(Zn,n)113 reaction was determined to be 31 fb at that time. In order to increase the statistics of the decay property, we continued to produce more decay chains. The experiment was carried out from January 7 to March 31, 2008. The experimental conditions were identical to those used in the previous experiment. Zn ion beam of 353 MeV was extracted from RILAC. The net irradiation time was 83 days and the total dose of Zn was 2.28. In the present expriment any candidate of 113 was not observed. Then combining the results of the present and previous experiments, the production cross section of 113 was determined to be 22 fb.

In this work, the production and decay properties of Hs produced in the Pb(Fe, ) [] and Pb(Fe, ) reactions were investigated. The experiment was performed at the RILAC facility in RIKEN. The evaporation residues (ERs) were separated from the primary beam with the gas-filled recoil ion separator, GARIS. In the focal plane of GARIS the products were implanted into a position-sensitive Si detector for measuring the arrival of ERs and subsequent -decays or spontaneous fission from ERs. We have measured production cross-sections of Hs in the Fe + Pb reaction at several bombarding energies. For the Pb(Fe, )Hs reaction, the cross-section maximum of () pb was obtained at the bombarding energy of 220.5 MeV at the middle of the target. For even-even nucleus Hs, we have also observed accurate decay data with good statistics.

A gas-jet transport system for superheavy element chemistry has been coupled to the gas-filled recoil ion separator GARIS at the RIKEN linear accelerator. In this work, we have investigated the performance of the system using Rf produced in the Cm(O,5)Rf reaction. The present result demonstrates that the GARIS/gas-jet system is a promising approach to explore new frontiers in SHE chemistry: (1) the background radioactivities originating from unwanted reaction products are strongly suppressed, (2) the intense primary heavy-ion beam is absent in the gas-jet chamber, and hence high gas-jet transport efficiency is achieved, and (3) the beam-free conditions also make it possible to investigate new chemical systems that were not accessible before.

A new neutron deficient hassium () isotope of Hs was identified via two different reactions of Pb(Fe,) and Pb(Fe,) by using the gas-filled recoil separator GARIS. During irradiation of Pb with the Fe beam and irradiation of Pb with the Fe beam, 8 decay chains and 1 decay chain, respectively, were observed. The properties of decay events obtained by irradiation of Fe on Pb match well with those by irradiation of Fe on Pb. The mean -decay energies for the 3 groups are 10.82, 10.55, and 10.37 MeV, respectively. The half-life of Hs is determined to be 0.60 ms.

A nuclide, Bh, is the great-grand-daughter of 113 that is produced in the Bi + Zn reaction. The identification was based on a genetic link to the known daughter nucleus Db by alpha-decays. The main purpose of this work is to provide further confirmation of the production and identification of the isotope 113. As a present result, a state in Bh, which decays by an alpha emission with the energies ranging from 9.05 to 9.23 MeV, feeds a state in Db, which decays by alpha emission and by SF with a previously known half-life. The result provided a further confirmation of the production and identification of the isotope of the 113th element, 113, studied by a research group at RIKEN.

In the superheavy nuclei region, the deformed proton shell at and neutron shells at and 162 have been found. Hs with and is expected to be the doubly deformed magic nuclei, however, decay properties of Hs and its neighboring nuclei is not well known. In order to approach Hs, we synthesized Hs by Pb(Fe,xn) [], Pb(Fe,n), Pb(Fe,n), Pb(Fe,n) reactions. The experiment was performed with the gas-filled recoil ion separator GARIS at the linear accelerator facility in RIKEN. In this work, 9 -decay events of Hs were observed with half-life ms and -decay energy MeV. For Hs, we have also observed new -particle energy, 10.65 MeV. values of Hs isotopes increase with decreasing neutron number.

RIKEN group has investigated the performance of the system using an isotope of element 106, Sg, produced in the Cm(Ne,5) reaction. Alpha-particles of Sg separated with a GAs-filled Recoil Ion Separator (GARIS) and extracted to a chemistry laboratory were successfully identified with a rotating wheel system for -spectrometry under low background conditions. As a result, two isomeric states in Sg, Sg (-particle energy MeV, half-life s) and Sg ( MeV, s), were identified. The cross sections for the Cm(Ne,5) reactions at 118 MeV were roughly evaluated to be 200 pb for Sg and 170 pb for Sg.

RIKEN group has been developing a new gas-filled recoil ion separator GARIS-II for research of superheavy element produced by actinide-based asymmetric fusion (hot fusion) reactions. The GARIS-II consists of five magnets with a Q-D-Q-Q-D configuration. Where, D and Q are dipole and quadrupole magnets, respectively. The test of GARIS-II was performed with the Am standard -source and 0 scattered ions from the Pb target. A solid angle of GARIS-II was measured to be about 18.4 msr, which was almost as same as a calculated value with the TRANSPORT cord. The image size at focal plane versus He-gas pressure in GARIS-II chamber was also measured with Pb ions.
