Reaching the superheavy elements: a new approach with a novel ultra-sensitive detector array

我们的项目旨在建立知识基础，支持新的重元素和同位素的创造。这是第一次对使用放射性束的预期好处进行直接调查，将提高澳大利亚在核聚变基础学科研究方面的声誉。将开发的独特和先进的科学仪器将提高我们在澳大利亚国立大学的RIEF资助的聚变产物分离器的能力，并在海外放射性束加速器上使用将展示澳大利亚的技术成就。 这种早期参与令人兴奋的前沿发展将有助于澳大利亚研究人员在纯研究和应用研究中充分利用未来的强放射性束设施。

Our project aims to build the knowledge base underpinning the creation of new heavy elements and isotopes. This first direct investigation of the hoped-for benefits of using radioactive beams will enhance the strong reputation of Australian research in the fundamental subject of nuclear fusion. The unique and sophisticated scientific instrument to be developed will enhance the capability of our RIEF-funded fusion product separator at the ANU, and use at overseas radioactive beam accelerators will showcase Australian technological achievement. This early participation in exciting, leading-edge developments will help Australian researchers to make full use of future, intense radioactive beam facilities, both in pure and applied research.
