Abstract

We review some predictions of modern self-consistent mean-field models concerning the shell structure and fission barriers of superheavy elements. Several parametrizations for each mean-field model are chosen to obtain a measure for the uncertainties in the extrapolations. The various forces agree on global trends but differ in detailed predictions of magic numbers and inner fission barrier heights.
