In this article we present a new experimental approach for production of heavy and superheavy elements (HE, SHE). Nuclear reactions at low incident energies induced by heavy ion (HI) projectiles on fissile target nuclei are investigated. Dedicated detection setup is presented and the preliminary results for the reaction (197)Au(7.5 MeV/u)+(232)Th, studied at the Cyclotron Institute of Texas A&M University, are given.

Abstract

In this article we present a new experimental approach for production of heavy and superheavy elements (HE, SHE). Nuclear reactions at low incident energies induced by heavy ion (HI) projectiles on fissile target nuclei are investigated. Dedicated detection setup is presented and the preliminary results for the reaction (197)Au(7.5 MeV/u)+(232)Th, studied at the Cyclotron Institute of Texas A&M University, are given.
