Simple formulas for α-half-lives derived from the systematics of measured and calculated α-half-lives [Rom. J. Phys. 62, 303 (2017)] of superheavy nuclei, are used to predict the α-half lives of the nuclei around the expected double magic nucleus Present α-half-life estimates for nuclei near closed shells are compared to available data and results of other methods. We get almost identical α-half-lives for decays of 104 Te, 212 Po and leading to known 100 Sn, 208 Pb or doubly magic nuclei. The competition between α decay and fission at the closed shells is discussed. Key words: Half-lives, α-decay, spontaneous fission. PACS: e; Ca; Cs. 1. INTRODUCTION The experimental data [1 5] and theoretical results [6 9] on synthesis and nuclear properties of elements Z= and their decay products, demonstrate an impressive increasing of nuclear stability of superheavy nuclei (SHN) with the neutron number approaching the magic number N=184. For the synthesis of new SHN is very important to know exactly the central position of the island of stability (i.e., the values of Z and N of the double magic core). The island of stability for SHN is predicted to be around the neutron number N=184 and proton number Z 120 [7 9]. The uncertainties concerning the magicity of atomic number may reveal serious limits of validity of the reaction data analysis and of theoretical results obtained by the use of phenomenological models. The experiment aimed at the synthesis of these isotopes of element Z=120 has been performed using the 244 Pu( 58 Fe,xn) 302 xn 120 reaction [10]. The sensitivity of the experiment corresponds to a cross section of 0.4 pb for the detection of one decay. Thus, the experimentally investigated nuclides and are still neutron deficient isotopes and therefore are expected to have a some α-branch. Otherwise, it was assumed in [10] that both isotopes of the Romanian Journal of Physics 63, 302 (2018)

However, no decay chains consistent with fusion-evaporation reaction products ( and ) expected for the 3n and 4n reaction channels, were observed during an irradiation with a beam dose of MeV 58 Fe projectiles. We want to study in detail the decay properties of these nuclei. If assuming that is a double magic nucleus, than the nuclides and have six and five holes in N=184 neutron shell, and their α decaying parents should be and For these nuclides we make also half life estimates. In the present work we perform estimates of the α and fission half-lives for isotopes of the elements around the expected double magic nucleus We will compare these with the experimental and calculated half lives for the known trans-tin and trans-lead regions of nuclei ( 100 Sn, 208 Pb). For this purpose we use the results of experimental and theoretical studies of fundamental properties (mass, reaction energies, decay modes, half-lives and nuclear structure) of already produced SHN to make reasonable predictions for decay properties of the nuclei with Z > 118 and approaching the number 184. Many SHN has been produced in fusion-evaporation reactions and identified via the α-particle spectroscopy. Thus, the fact that the α-particle has high binding energy, zero spin, zero isospin may lead to uncomplicated interpretation of its interactions with the nuclear matter, and it may continue still to be one of the most useful probes for studying the nuclear structure and reaction mechanisms of SHN. Therefore, the important changes in the nuclear structure with increasing values of N and Z are expected to manifest itself in the α-decay energy spectra and the systematics of α-half-lives. The α-halflives have been estimated within phenomenological [11 16] and microscopic [17 22] models. These models are various generalizations of the Geiger-Nuttall law [23], (T α Q 1/2 α ) having in common the quantum penetrability factor that depends linearly on Q 1/2 α. There are also microscopic methods for calculating: the shell model cluster formation and reaction amplitudes, the folding potential [24] and scattering resonances originating from quasibound states [25, 26]. 2. CALCULATION OF HALF-LIVES The Brown fit formula for the α-half-lives is taken of the form [18]: log 10 Tα f (sec) = AZd 0.6 Q 1/2 αt B, rms (1) where Z d is the atomic number of the daughter nucleus, Q αt is the total decay energy, A and B are the fit parameters and rms is the root mean square error. The total decay energy is the reaction energy Q α (measured or calculated) plus the screening energy: Q αt (MeV) = Q α + ( 6.53Z 7/5 d 8.0Z 2/5 d ) (2)

The values of parameters extracted from the Brown systematics of experimental and calculated (shell and one-body models, SM and ob) [18] AD-half-lives are given in Table 1. Table 1 Updated values of parameters extracted from the Brown systematics for α-half-lives [17]. The fit is performed for 80 nuclei with measured values of Q α and T α [18].

5 5 Half-lives of nuclei around the superheavy nucleus Article no. 302 for all the studied nuclei, there are not important discrepancies between the values of Tα fsm and Tα fexp. the ratio between Tα fob /Tα fsm and Tα fob /Tα fexp are of order , give rough estimations for the spectroscopic factors in α-decay. the nucleus has an α-half life almost identical with the one of 104 Te and 212 Po. because the estimated α (see Table 2) and fission (T f = (s)) half lives for 294 Og are close each other, the α and fission are expected to become competing modes. for the nuclide we get T f = (s) which is considerably shorter than T α. Present half-life estimates for nuclei near closed shells reveal the major role of valence protons and neutrons (from Fermi surface) on decay properties. The values of Tα SM,ob calculated, need very complicated numerical procedures [27 30]. However, the results [31 38] for α-half-lives given by microscopic procedures are in a good accordance with data for all the known SHN. We shown that the results obtained with a fit formula of calculated half-lives are also in accord to data and others predicted results [39]. 4. CONCLUSIONS The α and fission half lives of nuclei with Z= have been estimated within the different approximation schemes. The results demonstrate the reasonable consistence with data and other results by using microscopic, macroscopic and empirical procedures. We prove that a detailed analysis of decay properties of known SHN may help to investigate the structure and dynamics of the new heaviest nuclei. In conclusion, the nuclide shows decay properties specific to the known double magic nuclei. Apart from these, the main decay mode is fission not α-decay. We hope that some of our results may help in synthesis and identification of new heaviest nuclei. Acknowledgements. We thank to Prof. A. Sǎndulescu for many stimulating discussions.
