Abstract
The production of superheavy elements in binary reactions of the type208Pb (136Xe, X) Y was investigated atE c.m.=470 MeV. The experiment was designed to search for delayed fission products from elements withZ between 108 and 116 and fission lifetimes ofΤ≳10−12 s. No fission events were observed the upper limit for the formation cross section being 1.2 Μbarn.
