General Comments:

1984Og03: 258Db produced and identified in 208Bi(50Ti,n) and parent of 258Rf activity.

1985He22: 258Db produced in 208Bi(50Ti,n), and identified as parent of 254No, 254Lr, 250Fm, and 250Md through αα correlations, measured half-lives.

2001Ga20: 258Db produced in 241Am(22Ne,5n), measured half-lives

2008Ga25: 258Db produced in 208Pb(51V,n),(50Ti,n) reactions at E=4.7-5.1 MeV/nucleon, with beams of 51V (11+ charge state) and 50Ti (12+ charge state) provided by 88-Inch Cyclotron at LBNL. Separated and detected charged particles using BGS focal plane detector and a multiwire proportional counter. Measured Eα, Iα and half-life of 258Db decay using silicon implantation detectors.

2016He15: 258Db produced in 209Bi(50Ti,n),E=236 MeV, with 50Ti beam from the ECR source of the UNILAC at GSI. The Evaporation residues (ERs) were separated by the velocity filter SHIP and implanted into a position-sensitive 16-strip Si PIPS detector for detecting ERs, conversion electrons, and subsequent α-decays or spontaneous fission (SF) events. Escaped products into the backward hemisphere were detected by a box of six Si wafers. The x rays were detected by a Ge clover detector consisting of four crystals. Measured correlations between ERs, x rays, ce, α-decay and SF events. Deduced isomeric states and half-lives.

Theoretical studies: consult the NSR database at www.nndc.bnl.gov for about 40 references dealing with theoretical calculations of half-lives for different decay modes, binding energies, fission characteristics, and other nuclear structure aspects.

Q-value: Estimated uncertainties (2017Wa10): 510 for Q(β-), 370 for S(n), 310 for S(p)

Q-value: S(2n)=14840 390, S(2p)=4530 320, Q(εp)=1840 310 (syst,2017Wa10)
