The search for new superheavy elements (SHEs) is at present one of the most exciting adventures in nuclear physics. Thanks to enhanced experimental techniques, the synthesis of elements Z=113 to 118 in reactions using (48)Ca projectiles and targets made of isotopes of the elements neptunium to californium has been claimed. Discovery of the elements Z=114 (named flerovium) and Z=116 (named livermorium) has been accepted by the IUPAC. The others are waiting. The situation for element 113 is particular; here claims on discovery come from groups from RIKEN, Wako, Saitama, Japan and FLNR-JINR, Dubna, Russia.
目前,寻找新的超重元素(SHEs)是核物理中最令人兴奋的冒险之一。由于实验技术的提高,使用(48)Ca 射弹和钚到锎同位素靶的反应中已经声称合成了 Z=113 到 118 的元素。IUPAC 已经接受了 Z=114(命名为 flerovium)和 Z=116(命名为 livermorium)元素的发现。其他的还在等待确认。对于元素 113 的情况比较特殊;这里的发现声明来自于来自日本 RIKEN、Wako 和 Saitama 的小组以及俄罗斯的 FLNR-JINR、杜布纳。
