Abstract

An increasing interest in multinucleon transfer processes in low-energy deep inelastic (damped) collisions of heavy ions appeared in recent years is due, in part, to by the possibility of using them as a method of production of heavy neutron-enriched nuclei. Possible promising projectile-target combinations include nuclei deformed in the ground state (e.g., actinides). Mutual orientations of such the nuclei in the entrance channel of the reaction may significantly influence the reaction dynamics. Available experimental data on multinucleon transfer reactions with statically deformed as well as spherical heavy nuclei 144Sm + 144Sm, 154Sm + 154Sm, 160Gd + 186W, and 208Pb + 208Pb/238U have been analyzed within the developed model. A good agreement of the calculated quantities with the corresponding experimental data is reached. Special attention in the paper is paid to analysis of production possibility of the neutron-enriched isotopes of heavy and superheavy elements in multinucleon transfer processes in the 238U + 238U/248Cm/254Es collisions.
