Fusion reaction ⁴⁸Ca + ²⁴⁹Bk leading to formation of the element Ts (Z=117)

NUCLEAR REACTIONS ²⁴⁹Bk(⁴⁸Ca, 3n), (⁴⁸Ca, 4n)²⁹³Ts/²⁹⁴Ts, E=252.1, 254.0, 258.0 MeV; measured reaction products, evaporation residues (ER), Eα, Iα, (ER)α-correlated decay chains, and σ using double-sided silicon strip detectors for α detection, TASCA separator for evaporation residue, and multiwire proportional counter for detection of residues at UNILAC accelerator facility of GSI. Comparison with previous experimental data for (ER)α-correlated decay chains from DGFRS-Dubna facility.

RADIOACTIVITY ²⁹⁴Ts, ²⁹⁰Mc, ²⁸⁶Nh, ²⁸²Rg, ²⁷⁸Mt, ²⁷⁴Bh, ²⁷⁰Db(α); ²⁹³Ts, ²⁸⁹Mc, ²⁸⁵Nh, ²⁸¹Rg(α); ²⁶⁶Lr, ²⁷⁰Db, ²⁷⁷Mt, ²⁷⁷Hs(SF); measured Eα, Iα, SF events, half-lives. ²⁶⁶Lr, ²⁷⁰Db(α), (SF); measured half-lives and α/SF branching ratios. Comparison with previous experimental data for (ER)α-correlated decay chains from DGFRS-Dubna facility. A=200-240; A=240-260; systematics of α-decay half-lives of isotopes produced in ⁴⁸Ca+²⁴⁹Bk and ⁴⁸Ca+²⁴⁹Cf reactions.
