This study presents new methods for producing and analyzing superheavy isotopes, particularly around the production of approximately 278Sg through deep inelastic reactions involving 238U and 248Cm. Utilizing the SHIPtrap facility, we explore isobar separation at A=147 and identify excited isomeric states. The recent experiments focus on fusion-evaporation reactions to generate superheavy elements and analyze their decay properties, contributing to our understanding of the stability of superheavy nuclei and their fission processes.
