Abstract
A number of interesting physics phenomena have been predicted to occur in the actinide region. These can be studied by measuring fusion-evaporation residues produced in a heavy-ion fusion reaction. However reactions leading to this region are characterized by very low cross-sections and fission is a dominant channel...
