The production of about half of the heavy elements found in nature is assigned to a specific
astrophysical nucleosynthesis process: the rapid neutron-capture process (r process) …

In the past 85 years the number of known nuclides increased by more than a factor of ten,
resulting in 4000 presently known isotopes of 118 elements. This considerable progress we …

Background: Multinucleon transfer in low-energy nucleus-nucleus collisions is proposed as
a method of production of yet-unknown neutron-rich nuclei hardly reachable by other …

How does one populate still vacant areas on the chart of nuclides? Mainly on the neutron-
rich side several thousand further isotopes are expected to exist, including most of the nuclei …

The idea to document the discovery of all isotopes was not an ad hoc decision, but it
developed over several years. In 2003, I was asked to write a review article about the drip …

In-flight separators have played a significant role in the physics of exotic nuclei. In the last
decade, in particular, this field has expanded rapidly with the advent of the new-generation …

In deep inelastic multinucleon transfer reactions of 48 Ca+ 248 Cm we observed about 100
residual nuclei with proton numbers between Z= 82 and Z= 100. Among them, there are five …

The main progresses in the multinucleon transfer reactions at energies close to the Coulomb
barrier are reviewed. After a short presentation of the experimental progress and theoretical …

In the present work we were able to synthesize and measure with high accuracy the
production cross sections of more than 190 heavy neutron-rich nuclei by the in-flight …
