Study of production cross section of neutron-rich Md isotopes in multinucleon transfer reactions

Abstract

The multi-nucleon transfer reactions have recently attracted attention as a possible path to the synthesis of new neutron- rich heavy nuclei. We predicted the possibilities of production of new neutron-rich isotopes of Md at bombarding energies around the Coulomb barriers. In order to synthesize neutron-rich nuclei, a variety of multi-nucleon transfer reactions were used. The optimal choice of projectile-target combinations and bombarding energies for their production are suggested for future experiments.
