Production of unknown transactinides in asymmetry-exit-channel quasifission reactions

Abstract

Possibilities of production of new isotopes of superheavy nuclei with charge numbers 104--108 in asymmetry-exit-channel quasifission reactions are studied for the first time. The optimal conditions for the synthesis are suggested in this type of reaction. The products of suggested reactions can fill a gap of unknown isotopes between the isotopes of heaviest nuclei obtained in cold and hot complete fusion reactions.
