Excitation functions of quasielastic scattering cross sections for the $$^{48}$$Ca + $$^{208}$$Pb, $$^{50}$$Ti + $$^{208}$$Pb, and $$^{48}$$Ca + $$^{248}$$Cm reactions were successfully measured by using the gas-filled recoil-ion separator GARIS. Fusion barrier distributions were extracted from these data, and compared with the coupled-channels calculations. It was found that the peak energies of the barrier distributions for the $$^{48}$$Ca + $$^{208}$$Pb and $$^{50}$$Ti + $$^{208}$$Pb systems coincide with those of the 2n evaporation channel cross sections for the systems, while that of the $$^{48}$$Ca + $$^{248}$$Cm is located slightly below the 4n evaporation ones. This results provide us helpful information to predict the optimum beam energy to synthesize superheavy nuclei.

The fusion reaction of $$^{48}$$Ca + $$^{248}$$Cm $$rightarrow$$ $$^{296}$$Lv$$^{ast}$$ was studied using the gas-filled recoil-ion separator GARIS at RIKEN. A total of seven $$alpha$$ and spontaneous-fission decay chains were observed, which would originate from the reaction products of the element 116, $$^{292}$$Lv and $$^{293}$$Lv. Decay properties observed in the chains are in good agreement with the previously published ones. However, one of the chains showed a discrepancy, indicating the new spontaneous-fission branch in $$^{285}$$Cn or the production of the new isotope $$^{294}$$Lv.

Performance of new gas-filled recoil ion separator GARIS-II for asymmetric fusion reaction

Kaji, Daiya*; Morimoto, Koji*; Wakabayashi, Yasuo*; Takeyama, Mirei*; Yamaki, Sayaka*; Tanaka, Kengo*; Haba, Hiromitsu*; Huang, M.*; Murakami, Masashi*; Kanaya, Jumpei*; et al.

JPS Conference Proceedings (Internet), 6, p.030107_1 - 030107_4, 2015/06

Performance of the new gas-filled recoil ion separator GARIS-II was investigated using asymmetric $$^{22}$$Ne-induced fusion reactions. The use of He-H$$_{2}$$ mixture gas for the gas-filled magnet significantly reduced background scattered particles detected at the focal-plane Si detector, and increased a transmission of the asymmetric reaction products. A target-identification system was newly installed for efficient measurements of excitation functions without changing beam energy nor target.

Morita, Kosuke*; Morimoto, Koji*; Kaji, Daiya*; Haba, Hiromitsu*; Ozeki, Kazutaka*; Kudo, Yuki*; Sumita, Takayuki*; Wakabayashi, Yasuo*; Yoneda, Akira*; Tanaka, Kengo*; et al.

An isotope of the 113th element, $$^{278}$$113, was produced in a nuclear reaction with a $$^{70}$$Zn beam on a $$^{209}$$Bi target. We observed six consecutive $$alpha$$ 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 $$^{262}$$Db and $$^{258}$$Lr both in decay energies and decay times. This indicates that the present decay chain consisted of $$^{278}$$113, $$^{274}$$Rg (Z = 111), $$^{270}$$Mt (Z = 109), $$^{266}$$Bh (Z = 107), $$^{262}$$Db (Z = 105), and $$^{258}$$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 $$^{278}$$113, of the 113th element.

Decay properties of an isotope $$^{266}$$Bh and its daughter nucleus $$^{262}$$Db produced by the $$^{248}$$Cm($$^{23}$$Na,5$$n$$) reaction were studied by using a gas-filled recoil separator coupled with a position-sensitive semiconductor detector. $$^{266}$$Bh was clearly identified from the correlation of the known nuclide, $$^{262}$$Db. The obtained decay properties of $$^{266}$$Bh and $$^{262}$$Db are consistent with those observed in the $$^{278}$$113 chain, which provided further confirmation of the discovery of $$^{278}$$113.

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 $$^{209}$$Bi$$+$$ $$^{70}$$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 $$^{278}$$113. The cross section of the $$^{209}$$Bi($$^{70}$$Zn,n)$$^{278}$$113 reaction was determined to be 31$$^{+40}_{-20}$$ 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. $$^{70}$$Zn ion beam of 353 MeV was extracted from RILAC. The net irradiation time was 83 days and the total dose of $$^{70}$$Zn was 2.28$$times10^{19}$$. In the present expriment any candidate of $$^{278}$$113 was not observed. Then combining the results of the present and previous experiments, the production cross section of $$^{278}$$113 was determined to be 22$$^{+29}_{-19}$$ fb.

The production and decay of $$^{277}$$112 has been investigated using a gas-filled recoil ion separator in irradiations of $$^{208}$$Pb targets with $$^{70}$$Zn beam at 349.5 MeV. We have observed two $$alpha$$-decay chains that can be assigned to subsequent decays from $$^{277}$$112 produced in the 208 Pb($$^{70}$$Zn,n) reaction. After emitting four consecutive $$alpha$$-particles, the both chains ended by spontaneous fission decays of $$^{261}$$Rf and decay energies and decay times of the both chains obtained in the present work agree well with those reported by a group at Gesellschaft f$"u$r Schwerionenforschung (GSI), Germany. The present result gives the first clear confirmation of the discovery of $$^{277}$$112 and its $$alpha$$-decay products $$^{273}$$Ds reported previously.

A series of experiments studying the productions and their decays of the heaviest elements have been performed by using a gas-filled recoil separator GARIS at RIKEN. Results on the isotope of the 112th element, $$^{277}$$112, and on that of the 113th element, $$^{278}$$113, are reviewed. Two decay chains which are assigned to be ones originating from the isotope $$^{277}$$112 were observed in the $$^{208}$$Pb($$^{70}$$Zn, n) reaction. The results provide a confirmation of the production and decay of the isotope $$^{277}$$112 reported by a research group at GSI, Germany, produced via the same reaction by using a velocity filter. Two decay chains, both consisted of four consecutive alpha decays followed by a spontaneous fission, were observed also in the reaction $$^{209}$$Bi($$^{70}$$Zn, n). Those are assigned to be the convincing candidate events of the isotope of the 113th element, $$^{278}$$113, and its daughter nuclei. $$^{274}$$Rg, $$^{270}$$Mt, $$^{266}$$Bh, and $$^{262}$$Db.

A nuclide, $$^{266}$$Bh, is the great-grand-daughter of $$^{278}$$113 that is produced in the $$^{209}$$Bi + $$^{70}$$Zn reaction. The identification was based on a genetic link to the known daughter nucleus $$^{262}$$Db by alpha-decays. The main purpose of this work is to provide further confirmation of the production and identification of the isotope $$^{278}$$113. As a present result, a state in $$^{266}$$Bh, which decays by an alpha emission with the energies ranging from 9.05 to 9.23 MeV, feeds a state in $$^{262}$$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, $$^{278}$$113, studied by a research group at RIKEN.

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 $$^{241}$$Am standard $$alpha$$-source and 0$$^{circ}$$ scattered ions from the $$^{208}$$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 $$^{208}$$Pb ions.

We performed the experiment to synthesize an isotope of the element 113 produced by a $$^{209}$$Bi($$^{70}$$Zn,n)$$^{278}$$113 reaction using a gas-filled recoil ion separator (GARIS) at RIKEN. Two decay chains were observed, and assigned to those originating from an isotope $$^{278}$$113. Both chains were connected into the previously known decays of $$^{266}$$Bh and $$^{262}$$Db via previously unknown decays of $$^{278}$$113, $$^{274}$$Rg, and $$^{270}$$Mt. Although the $$^{266}$$Bh was known nuclide, a number of atoms reported so far was limited. In order to study more precise decay property of the $$^{266}$$Bh, we performed the direct production of $$^{266}$$Bh by the $$^{248}$$Cm($$^{23}$$Na,5n)$$^{266}$$Bh reaction. In this experiment, the $$^{266}$$Bh was clearly identified from the correlation of the nuclide, $$^{262}$$Db. The obtained decay properties of $$^{266}$$Bh and $$^{262}$$Db are consistent with those observed in the $$^{278}$$113 chain, which provided further confirmation of the discovery of $$^{278}$$113.

The decay property of $$^{277}$$Cn (atomic number, $$Z=112$$) produced in the $$^{208}$$Pb($$^{70}$$Zn, $$n$$) reaction was studied. The experiment was performed using the gas-filled recoil ion separator (GARIS) at the RIKEN liner accelerator facility (RILAC). The $$^{208}$$Pb target with about 630 $$mu$$g/cm$$^{2}$$ thickness was bombarded with 347.5, 351.5, and 355.5 MeV $$^{70}$$Zn beam. At the beam energy of 351.5 MeV, we observed one $$alpha$$-decay chain from $$^{277}$$Cn. The $$alpha$$-particle energy of $$^{277}$$Cn was $$11.07 pm 0.08$$ MeV and its lifetime was measured to be 0.370 ms. Including our previous result of the $$^{277}$$Cn production in 2004, the cross section of the $$^{208}$$Pb($$^{70}$$Zn, $$n$$) reaction is deduced to be $$0.17^{+0.16}_{-0.10}$$ pb.
