Superheavy nuclei occupy the extremely high-Z edge of the Segré chart, and superheavy elements form the limit of the periodic table. The physics and chemistry of superheavy elements are cutting-edge areas of research in nuclear science today. Understanding the properties of the heaviest nuclei through studies of nuclear reaction mechanisms and decay properties using innovative experimental techniques and novel theoretical approaches will help us answer fundamental questions about the nucleon-nucleon interaction, the creation of chemical elements in the universe, and the limits of nuclear stability. In this workshop, senior and junior researchers will critically assess recent advances in superheavy element research and the challenges hindering further progress to identify the best pathways to push our knowledge beyond current frontiers. Keywords: Physical and chemical properties of superheavy nuclei; production mechanisms; decay of superheavy nuclei; detection and identification of superheavy nuclei.
