Abstract

A new gas-cooled rotating target system was developed for the heaviest element production. A target wheel with a diameter of 30.0 cm could be rotated up to 3000 rpm. A helium gas introduced into the target chamber mounted upstream of a gas-filled recoil separator, which enables an effective gas cooling of the target. The development has led to the successful production of heavy nuclides via cold fusion reactions of ²⁰⁸Pb(⁶⁴Ni,n)²⁷¹Ds, ²⁰⁹Bi(⁶⁴Ni,n)²⁷²Rg, ²⁰⁸Pb(⁷⁰Zn,n)²⁷⁷112, and ²⁰⁹Bi(⁷⁰Zn,n)²⁷⁸113.
