| contents | The microscopic framework of time-dependent covariant density functional theory is applied to a systematic study of ternary quasifission in collisions of pairs of $^{238}$U nuclei. It is shown that the inclusion of octupole degree of freedom in the case of head-to-head collisions, extends the energy window in which ternary quasifission occurs, and greatly enhances the number of nucleons contained in a middle fragment. Dynamical pairing correlations, included here in the time-dependent BCS approximation, prevent the occurrence of ternary quasifission in head-to-head collisions, and have an effect on the location of the energy window in which a middle fragment is formed in tail-to-tail collisions. In the latter case, as well as for tail-to-side collisions, the formation of very heavy neutron-rich systems in certain energy intervals is predicted. |
