Sensitive search for near-symmetric and super-asymmetric fusion-fission of the superheavy element Flerovium (Z=114)
Measurements of mass and angular distributions have been made for fission-like outcomes in reactions forming isotopes of flerovium (Z=114), using 48 Ca, 50 Ti, and 54 Cr projectiles. The dominant fast quasifission process, which masks the presence of fusion-fission, has minimum yield at the most backward angles, where the sensitivity to fusion-fission is thus highest. In fitting the backward angle mass spectra, only weak evidence for a component of super-asymmetric fission was found, but a near-symmetric fission component was consistently required for the 48 Ca + 244 Pu reaction, giving upper limit to the fusion probabilities P CN of ~10 -2 , ~5 times lower than previous results. P CN for the 50 Ti reaction was lower than 48 Ca, whilst no evidence of fusion-fission was found for the 54 Cr reaction.

Search for elements 119 and 120
In this work, a search for production of the superheavy elements with atomic numbers 119 and 120 was performed in the 50 Ti + 249 Bk and 50 Ti + 249 Cf fusion-evaporation reactions, respectively, at the gas-filled recoil separator TASCA at GSI Darmstadt, Germany. Over four months of irradiation, the 249 Bk target partially decayed into 249 Cf, which allowed for a simultaneous search for both elements. Neither was detected at cross-section sensitivity levels of 65 and 200 fb for the 50 Ti + 249 Bk and 50 Ti + 249 Cf reactions, respectively, at a midtarget beam energy of E lab = 281.5 MeV. The nonobservation of elements 119 and 120 is discussed within the concept of fusion-evaporation reactions including various theoretical predictions on the fission-barrier heights of superheavy nuclei in the region of the island of stability.
