Confirmation of production of element 110 by the (208)Pb(64-Ni,n)reaction
Abstract
We report the experimental confirmation of the production of element110. In the bombardment of a 208Pb target with a 309~;MeV 64Ni beam, we have observed two chains of time- and position-correlated events. Each chain consisted of the implantation of an evaporation residue followed by the emission of alpha-particles. We attribute these two chains to the decay of 271-110 produced with a cross section of 8.3 (+11/-5.3)pb.
