We present the first triaxial beyond-mean-field study of the excitation spectra of even-even superheavy nuclei. As representative examples, we have chosen the members of the α-decay chains of ^{292}Lv and ^{294}Og, the heaviest even-even nuclei which have been synthesized so far using ^{48}Ca-induced fusion-evaporation reactions. In our calculations, the effective finite-range density-dependent Gogny force is used and the angular-momentum and particle-number symmetries are restored. Configuration-mixing calculations are performed to determine ground- and excited-state deformations and to establish the collective band structures of these nuclei. Rapidly varying characteristics are predicted for the members of both decay chains, which are further accentuated when compared to the predictions of simple collective models. Based on the present calculations, the prospect of observing α-decay fine structures in future experiments is discussed. |
