Abstract
The role of the entrance channel in the fusion-fission reactions
leading to nearly the same superheavy compound nucleus
is studied in the framework of dynamic model.
The calculations are done for 48Ca + 244Pu and
74,76Ge + 208Pb reactions which could lead to formation
of superheavy element Z=114. It is shown that for these reactions
there is an energy window for the values of the bombarding energy at which
a capture probability is sufficiently large. Together with the restriction
coming from the intrinsic barrier for fusion, it helps to find an optimal
value of the bombarding energy for a given projectile-target combination.
