Could new isotopes of superheavies with Z=112–118 be produced in 48Ca-induced cold fusion reactions?

Abstract

The excitation functions of the production of new heaviest isotopes of superheavy nuclei with charge numbers 112–118 are predicted in the 1n− and 2n−evaporation channels of the 48Ca-induced actinide-based complete fusion reactions for future experiments.
