Abstract: The new neutron-rich isotope 208Hg has been identified for the first time from the reaction products in fully-stopping thick nat.Pb target bombarded by 30MeV/u 12C beam provided by the Heavy Ion Research Facility in Lanzhou.Assignment of the nuclide 208Hg was based on the measurements of the deacy γ energy and halflife of its daughter 208Ti,which was grown up with 208Hg β-deacy.The half-life of 208Hg β-deacy was determined to be 42+23-12 min.The average production cross section of 208Hg over the incident energy region from Coulomb barrier to 30MeV/u is found to be 1.1±0.5μb.
