TY - JOUR A1 - Müller, Berndt A1 - Peitz, Heinrich A1 - Rafelski, Johann A1 - Greiner, Walter T1 - Solution of the Dirac equation for strong external fields T2 - Physical review letters N2 - The 1s bound state of superheavy atoms and molecules reaches a binding energy of -2mc2 at Z≈169. It is shown that the K shell is still localized in r space even beyond this critical proton number and that it has a width Γ (several keV large) which is a positron escape width for ionized K shells. The suggestion is made that this effect can be observed in the collision of very heavy ions (superheavy molecules) during the collision.
