Superheavy nuclei (SHN) with extremely large atomic numbers (Z > 103), whose existence is due to their underlying nuclear stucture, remain one of the central and interdisciplinary research topics in science [1].
To date, SHN with proton numbers up to Z = 118 and neutron numbers up to N = 177 have been successfully synthesized and identified [2,3]. These nuclei are produced in heavy-ion...
We report on a new investigation of the fission shape isomer in ²³⁸U [1-3], performed with the Nu-Ball high-efficiency hybrid γ-ray spectrometer [4,5] at IJCLab, Orsay, France. The Nu-Ball array combines 24 clover HPGe detectors, 10 coaxial HPGe detectors with BGO shields, and up to 20 LaBr₃(Ce) or PARIS clusters, offering excellent efficiency, energy resolution, and timing performance. When...
