A thorough analysis of all stages of heavy ion fusion reaction leading to the formation of a heavy evaporation residue has been performed. The main goal of the analysis was to gain better understanding of the whole process and to find out what factors and quantities, in particular, bring major uncertainty into the calculated cross sections, how reliable the calculation of the cross sections of superheavy element formation may be and what additional theoretical and experimental studies should be made in this field.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
