Calculations of Branching Ratios for Radiative-Capture, One-Proton, and Two-Neutron Channels in the Fusion Reaction Bi+Zn
We discuss the possibility of the non-one-neutron emission channels in the
cold fusion reaction Zn + Bi to produce the element Z=113. For
this purpose, we calculate the evaporation-residue cross sections of
one-proton, radiative-capture, and two-neutron emissions relative to the
one-neutron emission in the reaction Zn + Bi. To estimate the
upper bounds of those quantities, we vary model parameters in the calculations,
such as the level-density parameter and the height of the fission barrier. We
conclude that the highest possibility is for the 2n reaction channel, and its
upper bounds are 2.4 and at most less than 7.9% with unrealistic parameter
values, under the actual experimental conditions of [J. Phys. Soc. Jpn. {\bf
73} (2004) 2593].Comment: 6 pages, 4 figure
