Abstract
We produce new families of smooth Fano fourfolds with Picard rank 1, which contain cylinders, i.e., Zariski open subsets of form $Z\times{\mathbb A}^1$, where $Z$ is a quasiprojective variety. The affine cones over such a fourfold admit effective $\mathbb{G}_{\operatorname{a}}$-actions. Similar constructions of cylindrical Fano threefolds and fourfolds were done previously in [KPZ11, KPZ14, PZ16].
