Excitation functions for production of heavy actinides from reactions of 40Ca and 48Ca with 248Cm

Description

Measurements of cross sections for production of isotopes of U through Fm have now been extended to reactions of 40Ca and 48Ca projectiles on 248Cm targets. Experiments were conducted with 48Ca at the Super HILAC at LBL and with 40Ca and 48Ca at the Unilac accelerator at the Gesellschaft fuer Schwerionenforschung (GSI) in Germany. Excitation functions for production of heavy actinides from reactions of 48Ca ions with incident energies on target of 239, 263, 288 and 318 MeV and 40Ca ions of 234, 259, and 294 MeV were measured using off-line radiochemical techniques. Results for Bk through Fm isotopes are presented here
