In the reactions of 20Ne+209Bi, some short-lived nuclei produced by transferring 26 nucleons were discovered. The experiment of 20Ne+209Bi was performed at gas-filled recoil separator in Lanzhou[2]. A 400 g/cm2 thick 209Bi target was bombarded with 20Ne beam delivered by accelerator HIRFL.展开更多

This not-yet-explored area of the nuclear map is extremely important for understanding the astrophysical nucleosynthesis and the origin of heavy elements. Beams of very heavy U-like ions are needed to produce new long-living isotopes of transfermium and superheavy elements located very close to the island of stability. The calculated cross sections are high enough to perform the experiments at available accelerators.Beams of medium-mass ions(such as136 Xe,192Os,198Pt) can be used for the production of neutron rich nuclei located along the neutron closed shell N = 126(the last waiting point) having the largest impact on the astrophysical r-process. The Low-energy multinucleon transfer reactions is a very efficient tool also for the production and spectroscopic study of light exotic nuclei. The corresponding cross sections are 2 or 3 orders of magnitude larger as compared with high energy fragmentation reactions.展开更多

For isotopes in the region Z >82 and N <126, -emission prevails as radioactive decay mode and -spectroscopy is the most important tool to obtain information on the nuclear structure. In the heavy nuclei region with N=124 and 126 isotones, an intruder state (h9=2.f7=2)8+ based on the attractive interaction of f7=2 protons and f5=2 neutrons has been significantly observed, which increases the binding energy of this configuration with increasing proton number.展开更多

The production cross-sections of iridium isotopes in the reactions have been determined by a combination of radiochemical separation and off-line γ-ray spec- troscopy technique. The obtained Ir isotope distribution was compared with those obtained in other experiment as well as calculated by the statistical model.展开更多

A relatively fast radiochemical procedure was used to separate thorium from the mixture of uranium and complex reaction products. The chemically separated thorium fractions were studied by the 7-ray spectroscopic method. The behaviors of the growth and decay of 853.7 and 865.0 keV-γrays of 237Pa decay were observed. The half-life of 237Th was determined to be 4.69±0.60 nun.展开更多
