Abstract
The concept of a superconducting solenoid separator of super-heavy elements (SHEs) obtained in nuclear fusion reactions is presented. To obtain small dimensions of the SHE beams in the focal plane, a new design of the GASSOL gas-filled separator is proposed in which a large longitudinal axially symmetric magnetic field is used. For the SHE nuclei, this separator will provide the required speed and high efficiency required for working with isotopes of 112–117 elements.
