The existence of long lived superheavy nuclei (SHN) is controlled mainly by spontaneous fission and $\alpha$-decay processes. According to microscopic nuclear theory, spherical shell effects at Z=114, 120, 126 and N=184 provide the extra…
We have studied the fission-neutron emission competition in highly excited $^{274}$Hs (Z=108) (where the fission barrier is due to shell effects) formed by a hot fusion reaction. Matching cross bombardments ($^{26}$Mg + $^{248}$Cm and…
The probability of $\alpha$ particle emission for some recently observed superheavy nuclei (SHN) are investigated. The $\alpha$-decay half lives of SHN are calculated in a quantum tunneling model with density dependent M3Y (DDM3Y) effective…
The production cross sections of superheavy nuclei with charge numbers $114-117$ are predicted in the $(5-9)n$-evaporation channels of the $^{48}$Ca-induced complete fusion reactions for future experiments. The estimates of synthesis…
This work investigated the first-chance survival probabilities of highly excited compound superheavy nuclei in the prospect of synthesizing new superheavy elements. The main feature of our modelings is the adoption of microscopic…
Beyond uranium heavy elements rapidly become increasingly unstable with respect to spontaneous fission as the proton number Z increases, because of the disruptive effect of the long-range Coulomb force. However, in the region just beyond Z…

Magic islands for extra-stable nuclei in the midst of the sea of fission-instability were predicted to be around Z=114, 124 or, 126 with N=184, and Z=120, with N=172. Whether these fission-survived superheavy nuclei with high Z and N would…
Recent microscopic calculation based on the density functional theory predicts long-lived superheavy elements in a variety of shapes, including spherical, axial and triaxial configurations. Only when N=184 is approached one expects…
The evaporation residue (ER) cross section of 3n and 4n channels related to the synthesis of superheavy element (SHE) with the charge number $Z=119$ in the $^{51}$V+$^{248}$Cm reaction has been calculated by the dinuclear system (DNS) model…

Presence of closed proton and/or neutron shells causes deviation from macroscopic properties of nuclei which are understood in terms of the liquid drop model. It is important to investigate experimentally the stabilizing effects of shell…
Shell model studies have been done for very neutron - rich nuclei in the range Z=50-55 and N=82-87. Good agreement of the theoretical level spectra with the experimental one for N=82, 83 I and Te nuclei is shown. Then the results for three…

Quantum stabilization of superheavy elements is quantified in terms of the shell-correction energy. We compute the shell correction using self-consistent nuclear models: the non-relativistic Skyrme-Hartree-Fock approach and the relativistic…
A phenomenological model is proposed for a systematic description of the spontaneous fission (SF) half-lives $T_{\rm SF}$ of heavy and super-heavy nuclei. Based on the effective tunneling barrier (ETB), the proposed approach reproduces the…
