Abstract
A method for calculating electronic levels in compact superheavy nuclear quasimolecules based on solving the Dirac equation in spherical coordinates using a multipole expansion of a two-center potential is developed. It is shown that, for internuclear distances up to ∼100 fm, such a technique enables fast convergence, which allows one to calculate the electronic energy levels with an accuracy better than 10−6. Moreover, all the multipole moments can be calculated analytically. The critical distances between the similar colliding nuclei have been calculated in the range Z ∼ 87–100 for bottom electronic levels: even 1σg and odd 1σu, respectively.
