Abstract
A new method is suggested for calculating the charge and mass distributions of quasifission products. The quasifission is treated within a transport model describing the evolution of a dinuclear system in charge (mass) asymmetry and the decay of this system along the internuclear distance. The calculated yields of these products are in agreement with recent experimental data for the hot fusion reactions leading to superheavy nuclei. The quasifission distributions in cold Pb-based fusion reactions are predicted.
