Modern concepts on the possibility of formation of superheavy elements in nature.
Abstract
The paper reviews the possibility of natural nuclear synthesis of stable superheavy nuclei with a mass number near 114 and 126 and a neutron number near 184. Mechanisms such as neutron capture in the r-process and heavy ion reactions related to explosive high density stages of evolution in supernovae and nuclei of galaxies are considered.-
