TL;DR: In this article, the synthesis of element 116 in fusion-evaporation reactions of a 48Ca beam with radioactive 248Cm targets was studied at the velocity filter SHIP of GSI in Darmstadt.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the production and decay properties of isotopes of element 120 at the velocity filter SHIP at GSI, Darmstadt, with the intention of studying production and decays of isotope of 120.

TL;DR: This work first of all reviews the recent developments in experimental fission techniques, in particular the resurgence of transfer-induced fission reactions with light and heavy ions, the emerging use of inverse-kinematic approaches, both at Coulomb and relativistic energies, and of fission studies with radioactive beams.

TL;DR: In this paper, a large body of heavy ion fusion reaction data with medium-heavy projectiles and actinide targets suggests a disappearance of the $3n$ exit channel with increasing atomic number of the projectile.

TL;DR: In this article, the velocity filter SHIP of GSI was used as separator for the transfer products while the isotope identification was performed via the α decay chains of the nuclei, revealing that multinucleon transfer reactions together with here applied fast and sensitive separation and detection techniques are promising for the synthesis of new isotopes in the region of heaviest nuclei.
