Sensitivity of Isotopic Fission Yields in Actinides to the Macroscopic Liquid-Drop Model: LSD vs ISOLDA
K. Pomorski, A. Augustyn, T. Cap +5
The impact of the macroscopic liquid-drop prescription on isotope-resolved fission-fragment yields in the actinide region is assessed by comparing two alternative parameterizations…
Comparative Study of Langevin and Random Walk Models for Nuclear Fission in the Overdamped Regime
A. Augustyn, T. Cap, M. Kowal +1
We present a comparative study of Langevin dynamics and a Metropolis random walk model applied to thermal neutron-induced fission of Th, U, Pu, Cm,…
Survival of Pairing Correlations and Shell Effects at Scission in Finite-Temperature Nuclear Fission: Implications for Odd-Even Staggering
K. Pomorski, A. Augustyn, T. Cap +4
We investigate the finite-temperature evolution of microscopic free-energy corrections in nuclear fission, focusing on pairing and shell effects near scission. The analysis is base…
Isotope-Resolved Ba and Xe Yields in Actinide Fission and Correlated Heavy--Light Fragment Systematics
K. Pomorski, A. Augustyn, T. Cap +5
Isotope-resolved post-neutron fission yields in the Ba and Xe chains are calculated and benchmarked against evaluated reference data, with emphasis on element-resolved isotopic cha…
Static Fission Properties of Even-Even Actinides within the Warsaw Macroscopic-Microscopic Model Using Fourier-over-Spheroid Parameterization
A. Augustyn, T. Cap, R. Capote +2
A systematic study of fission barrier heights and static properties of even-even actinide nuclei from Th to Cf has been performed within the Warsaw macroscopic-microscopic model us…
Modeling of Light Production in Inorganic Scintillators
B. Kreider, I. Cox, R. Grzywacz +25
In recent experiments, inorganic scintillators have been used to study the decays of exotic nuclei, providing an alternative to silicon detectors and enabling measurements that wer…
