Langevin Fission Dynamics of Hot Rotating Nuclei: Systematic Application to Z~2/A = 34-42 Heavy Nuclei

摘要

A stochastic approach that treats fission dynamics on the basis of three-dimensional Langevin equations is used to calculate the mass-energy distributions of fragments origination from the fission of compound nuclei whose fissility parameter lies in the range Z~2/A = 34-42. In these calculations, use was made of the liquid-drop model allowing for finite-range nuclear forces and the diffuseness of the nuclear surface in calculation the potential energy and a modified one-body mechanism of viscosity in describing dissipation. The emission of light presession particles is taken into account on the basis of the statistical model. The calculations performed within three-dimensional Langevin dynamics reproduce well all parameters of the experimental mass-energy distributions of fission fragments and all parameters of the prefission-neutron multiplicity for various parameters of the compound nucleus. The inclusion of the third collective coordinate in the Langevin equations leads to a considerable increase (by up to 40-50%) in the variances of mass-energy distributions in relation to what was previously obtained from two-dimensional Langevin calculations. For the parameters of the mass-energy distributions of fission fragments and the parameters of the prefission-neutron multiplicity to be reproduced simultaneously, the reduction coefficient κ_s must be diminished at least by a factor of 2 (0.2 ≤ κ_s ≤ 0.5) in relation to that in the case of total one-body viscosity (κλ = 1).
