Relative mass distributions of neutron-rich thermally fissile nuclei within statistical model
arXiv:1704.08105 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevC.96.034623
Abstract
We study the fission yield of recently predicted thermally fissile neutron-rich uranium and thorium nuclei using statistical model. The level density parameters needed for the study are evaluated from the excitation energies of temperature dependent relativistic mean field formalism. The excitation energy and the level density parameter for a given temperature are employed in the convolution integral method to obtain the probability of the particular fragmentation. As representative case, we present the results for the binary fission yield of 250 U and 254 Th. The relative yields are presented for three different temperatures T = 1, 2 and 3 MeV.
