Abstract
The fission barriers of the nuclei in the r-process region have been calculated with inclusion of axial asymmetry and reflection asymmetry. Neutron separation energies and spontaneous-fission half-lives have been calculated and the possibilities of producing superheavy elements by means of neutron-capture processes are discussed.Keywords
