Muon-induced fission as a probe of the underlying dynamics in nuclear fission
Christian Ross, A. S. Umar
Muon-induced fission could be utilized as a probe to study the underlying dynamics of nuclear fission. The probability of muon attachment to the light asymmetric fission fragment i…
Shell effects in quasi-fission for calcium induced reactions forming thorium isotopes
C. Simenel, A. S. Umar, K. Godbey +1
Quantum shell effects induce an asymmetric fission mode in actinides, which disappears in neutron deficient isotopes. Quasi-fission, characterized by a significant mass transfer in…
Impact of tensor forces on quasifission product yield distributions
Liang Li, Lu Guo, K. Godbey +1
We employ the microscopic time-dependent Hartree-Fock (TDHF) theory to study the 48Ca+249Bk and 48Ti+238U systems, taking into account the dependence on orientation for deformed nu…
Pauli energy contribution to nucleus-nucleus interaction
A. S. Umar, K. Godbey, C. Simenel
The investigation delves into understanding how the Pauli exclusion principle influences the bare potential between atomic nuclei through the application of advanced theoretical me…
Isospin composition of fission barriers
K. Godbey, C. Ross, A. S. Umar
We employ a microscopic method to study how isospin affect the fission potential of Pu. Our approach uses constrained Hartree-Fock theory (CHF) which allows us to separatel…
