Mechanism behind the relation between shell structure and stability of heaviest nuclei

Mechanisms behind the relation between shell structure and stability of superheavy nuclei is discussed. The discussion is concentrated on the static spontaneous-fission barriers, calculated for these nuclei within a macroscopic-microscopic model.
