Ununhexium-289
editCould someone add ununhexium-289 (disc. 2011) to this table? This article might be dubious. --3.14159265358pi (talk) 21:24, 10 December 2011 (UTC)
reassignment of the first element 114 decay chain
editGiven that a similar activity was seen later from an experiment at Dubna trying to make element 116, I wonder if that was again the 2n channel leading to 294Lv and its daughter 290Fl. But this is OR for now, until we try for the 2n channel again or go for the heavy 250Cm _targets! Double sharp (talk) 07:53, 15 April 2017 (UTC)
- Yup, this is the LLNL report (search "SF event 2"). If Dubna's reassignment of the original 1999 Fl decay chain to 290Fl is true, then this is quite possibly 294Lv, though the initial alpha appears to have not been detected. Double sharp (talk) 14:25, 20 April 2017 (UTC)
There was another mystery chain at the GSI-SHIP in 2012 (chain 1 in this paper). This was once again from the 248Cm+48Ca reaction. The decay energies do not match Kaji et al.'s 2017 paper which they tentatively assign to 294Lv; but the first alpha decay matches very well the expected value they give for the missing first alpha from 294Lv in their investigation of the same reaction at RIKEN. Hofmann et al. (in the 2012 paper) propose four possible reactions leading to this: 2n, pn, p2n, and p3n, which would lead to 294Lv, 294Mc, 293Mc, and 292Mc respectively, all of which are unknown. Now, the cross-sections for most of these side-channels involving proton evaporation seem too high to be expected (except perhaps the p2n channel), but cannot be excluded entirely. I guess it is possible that we are seeing another chain starting at 294Lv and electron capturing at 290Fl, once again going down to 278Bh, but with different isomers along the way, and perhaps with some gamma decay or internal conversion along the way explaining the differing decay energies; the first would explain why the half-lives seem to be a lot shorter than those in the first Dubna chain that has been variously assigned tentatively to 290Fl, but we are once again engaging in the unlikely pursuit of postulating a whole chain of isomers.
I'll stop speculating here on the talk page, since I am not in the field and am quite likely just committing errors that anyone actually in it would notice (and if they are, I plead interest in learning and communication on their inspirational efforts to probe the limits of matter). I guess the main lesson here is that we should keep working on this and other reactions leading to the most neutron-rich nuclei we can get to, now that the electron-capturing region is at hand, and find all those rare channels and rare decay branches. The current picture we have of clear alpha-decay chains terminating at spontaneously fissioning nuclides is a little worrying: it just seems too neat, which we would not expect especially for nuclides with odd Z or N.
