AbstractAbstract
[en] We developed a gas-jet transport system coupled to the GAs-filled Recoil Ion Separator GARIS at the RIKEN Linear Accelerator as a novel technique for superheavy element (SHE) chemistry. The isotopes of 261Rf (atomic number Z = 104), 262Db (Z = 105), and 265Sg (Z = 106) useful for chemistry studies were produced in the 248Cm(18O,5n), 248Cm(19F,5n), and 248Cm(22Ne,5n) reactions, respectively, and they were extracted to a chemistry laboratory by the gas-jet method after the separation by GARIS (1-4). The production and decay properties of those isotopes were investigated in detail for future chemistry studies using a rotating wheel apparatus for α and SF spectrometry. Recently, the chemical synthesis and gas-chromatographic analysis of the first organometallic compound of SHEs, Sg(CO)6, were successfully conducted with preseparated 265Sg. In the conference, preliminary results on the production of Bh (Z = 107) isotopes in the 248Cm(23Na,xn) reactions will also be presented. (author)
