Résumé : Mass and energy distributions of binary reaction products obtained in the reactions Ne22+Cf249,Mg26+Cm248, S36+U238, and Fe58+Pb208 have been measured. All reactions lead to Hs isotopes. At energies below the Coulomb barrier the bimodal fission of Hs*, formed in the reaction Mg26+Cm248, is observed. In the reaction S36+U238, leading to the formation of a similar compound nucleus, the main part of the symmetric fragments arises from the quasifission process. At energies above the Coulomb barrier fusion-fission is the main process leading to the formation of symmetric fragments for both reactions with Mg and S ions. In the case of the Fe58+Pb208 reaction the quasifission process dominates at all measured energies. © 2011 American Physical Society.
