Times Cited Count:6 Percentile:18.14(Chemistry, Physical)We use the newly developed non collinear spin polarized density functional method to describe the tetrachlorides of element Rutherfordium (Rf) and its homologues. It is the first time that a real three-dimensional molecule is described with this method. Without any additional corrections (used so far for the atomic values) we get nearly complete agreement for all homologues and thus a good prediction for the unknown value for RfCl.

We have investigated the sorption behavior of element 104 rutherfordium (Rf) on an anion exchange resin from HCl and HNO solutions. In the HCl experiments, the distribution coefficients of Rf increase with an increase of HCl concentration from 7.0 M to 11.5 M, indicating that anionic species such as [Rf(OH)Cl] or [RfCl] are formed. This sorption behavior of Rf is typical of the group-4 elements Zr and Hf, and is quite different from that of the pseudo-homologue Th. It is also noted that the distribution coefficients decrease in the order Rf, Zr, Hf at 9.0 M HCl, which is consistent with the expected order of ionic radii. On the other hand, Rf appears to behave like Zr and Hf in 8 M HNO not like Pu and Th.

We have performed - coincidence and high-resolution -fine structure spectroscopy for Rf, and have obtained new information on nuclear structure of Rf. We have confirmed the existence of two transitions following the decay, and have succeeded in determining the -transition energy very accurately. On the basis of these experimental results, we have estimated the spin-parities and neutron single-particle configurations of the ground- and isomeric states of Rf, and have obtained information on the single-particle configurations and nuclear deformations for heavier superheavy nuclei.

Alpha-gamma coincidence and high-resolution fine-structure measurements were performed for the decay of Rf. Two lines associated with the decay of Rf were clearly observed, and more precise -energy spectrum than before were obtained. It was found that the literature value (8.28 MeV) of the -transition energy of Rf was incorrect, and that the -decay scheme of Rf should contain several low-energy cascade transitions. On the basis of these results and literature data of Rf, we will discuss nuclear structure of superheavy nuclei around this region as well as the level structure of Rf and its daughter nucleus No.

We have obtained new experimental data for nuclear structure of Rf through -decay spectroscopy. We have reconfirmed existence of two transitions in the decay of Rf through - coincidence measurement, and determined the -transition energy very precisely through high-resolution -fine structure measurement. On the basis of these experimental results, we have estimated spin-parities and neutron single-particle configurations of the ground- and isomeric states of Rf, and have obtained information on the single-particle configurations and nuclear deformations for heavier superheavy nuclei.
