Abstract

The synthesis of the new chemical element with atomic number Z=117 is presented. The isotopes ²⁹³117 and ²⁹⁴117were produced in fusion reactions between ⁴⁸Ca and ²⁴⁹Bk. The ²⁴⁹Bk was produced in the High Flux Isotope Reactor and chemically separated at Oak Ridge. Decay chains involving eleven new nuclei were identified by means of the Dubna Gas Filled Recoil Separator. The measured decay properties show a strong rise of stability for super-heavy nuclei toward N=184.
