The r-process of nucleosynthesis is the process which is responsible for the synthesis of
approximately half of the nuclear species in nature that are more massive than iron. This …

The concept of the double-humped fission barrier of actinide nuclei has made possible an
understanding of a vast amount of data on nuclear fission during the past decade. In this …

We describe the physics and data included in the Reference Input Parameter Library, which
is devoted to input parameters needed in calculations of nuclear reactions and nuclear data …

The GEF (“GEneral description of Fission observables”) model code is documented. It
describes the observables for spontaneous fission, neutron-induced fission and, more …

EMPIRE is a modular system of nuclear reaction codes, comprising various nuclear models,
and designed for calculations over a broad range of energies and incident particles. A …

We develop a unified nuclear potential for the description of large-scale nuclear collective
motion and find that it satisfactorily reproduces experimental data for heavy-ion elastic …

We present calculations of fission properties for heavy elements. The calculations are based
on the macroscopic-microscopic finite-range liquid-drop model with a 2002 parameter set …

A level density formula that takes into account the smoothed volume, surface and curvature
dependence of the single particle level density at the Fermi surface using the results of …

On the basis of standard nuclear evaporation theory, we calculate the prompt fission neutron
spectrum N (E) as a function of both the fissioning nucleus and its excitation energy. To …

In the last two decades, through technological, experimental and theoretical advances, the
situation in experimental fission studies has changed dramatically. With the use of advanced …
