The paper reviews recent developments in γ-ray spectroscopy of the neutron-rich fragments
produced in nuclear fission. This subject has been an intensive area of study spanning more …

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 …

We present calculated fission-barrier heights for 5239 nuclides for all nuclei between the
proton and neutron drip lines with 171≤ A≤ 330. The barriers are calculated in the …

Independent yields of 139 individual secondary (appearing after neutron evaporation)
fragment pairs of five different charge splits (ZL/ZH= 46/52, 44/54, 42/56, 40/58, and 38/60) …

The probable α-accompanied cold ternary fission fragments of 257 Fm are studied using six
types of nuclear proximity potentials. We have studied the driving potential, probability …

Background: Well-developed third minima, corresponding to strongly elongated and
reflection-asymmetric shapes associated with dimolecular configurations, have been …

In this process a heavy or superheavy nucleus spontaneously breaks into four, five, or six
nuclei of which two are asymmetric or symmetric heavy fragments and the others are light …

A comparative analysis of the high-statistics mass-energy distributions of the fission
fragments formed in the 252Cf (sf) and 249Cf (nth, f) reactions is performed on the basis of …

A realistic determination of fission saddle-point shapes requires an exploration of a
sufficiently large deformation space so that all a priori reasonable candidates for saddle …

The generation of sizable angular momenta in fragments formed in low-energy nuclear
fission is described microscopically within the general quantum-mechanical framework of …
