| English abstract | We calculate the neutron-evaporation residue cross sections σ3n , σ4n, and σ5n in the hot-fusion reactions 48Ca+242,244Pu→290,292114∗ over a wide range of compound-nucleus excitation energies (E∗ CN = 34– 53 MeV). We work with the dynamical cluster-decay model (DCM), with a single parameter, the neck-length parameter R. To calculate neutron-evaporation cross sections, we choose the superheavy proton magic Z = 126 and neutron magic N = 184. Among the 3n, 4n, and 5n production cross sections for 290,292114∗, only the 3n decay cross sections of 292114∗ correspond to spherical fragmentation. The 4n and 5n cross sections of 292114∗ and 3n, 4n, and 5n cross sections of 290114∗ could only be fitted after the inclusion of quadrupole deformations β2i within the optimum orientation approach. Changes in the angular momentum and N/Z ratio do not significantly influence the fragmentation paths of 290,292114∗ superheavy nuclei. Larger barrier modification is required for the lower angular momentum states and lighter neutron clusters. The contribution of the fusion–fission component is also computed for the compound nucleus 292114∗ in the energy range E∗ CN = 27–47 MeV |
