A supercritical binary branching random walk in \(\mathbb{Z}^d\) is considered, where additionally killing of all(!) the particles at a site is allowed, and in fact in such a way that the whole system becomes critical (mean preserving). More precisely, with rate \(b>0\) a particle splits into two particles, with rate \((1-p)b\) it dies, and with rate \(pb\) all particles at a site are killed, where \(0\leq p\leq 1\). The long-term behavior of the system, starting from a homogeneous initial population of finite intensity, is in the center of interest. Besides the usual dichotomy known from many models, namely local extinction (here for the case of a recurrent symmetrized migration \(\widehat\xi\), or for a transient one but for large \(p\)), respectively existence of non-trivial equilibria of finite variance (here for transient \(\widehat\xi\) and small \(p\)), in this model a third regime (transient \(\widehat\xi\) and intermediate \(p\)) is shown to exist. In the latter case, the system does not extinct and second moments diverge. Main tools are a combination of historical process, comparison, and exchangeability techniques. Part of the proofs is deferred to a forthcoming paper. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0937.00066].
