Theoretical progress on production of isotopes in the multinucleon transfer process

Abstract

<jats:p> As one promising approach for producing nuclei beyond the [Formula: see text]-stability line, the multinucleon transfer (MNT) process has been extensively investigated in past decades. An overview of the theoretical progress on production of isotopes in MNT process is presented. The dinuclear system model, one hybrid approach (GRAZING+DNS model), the improved quantum molecule dynamic model, and the model based on the Langevin equations are summarized. The nucleon transfer mechanisms, such as effects of quasi-elastic and deep inelastic collisions, energy dissipation, [Formula: see text] equilibration, and shell structure in collisions of two complex nuclei are discussed. We present the progress on production of the exotic nuclei near the neutron-drip line, the neutron-rich isotopes near [Formula: see text], and the transuranium nuclei. </jats:p>

Production mechanism and prediction cross sections of unknown neutron-rich 263–265,267–269Lr isotopes in multinucleon transfer reactions based on the dinuclear system model

“…The aim of the present article is to predict the synthesis of more neutron-rich Lr isotopes within 249 Bk and 254 Es targets under the framework of the DNS model. Recent research progress of DNS model about MNT reactions can be found in the review references [100][101][102].…”
