Description

We investigate the formation and the decay of heavy systems at the energies above the fission barrier. By using a microscopic simulation of constraint molecular dynamics (CoMD) on Au + Au collision, we observe composite states stay for very long time before decaying by fission: This result indicates a new path for production of the super heavy elements.
