Effect of Octupole correlations on Fission of Light Nuclei

Abstract

Fission of 180Hg produces mass asymmetric fragments which are expected to be influenced by deformed shell-effects at N=56 in the heavy fragment and Z=34 in the light fragment [G. Scamps and C. Simenel, arXiv:1904.01275 (2019)]. To investigate both shell-effects and to determine which one has the main influence on the asymmetry in the region of the 180Hg, we produce a systematic of Constraint-Hartree-Fock calculations in nuclei with similar N/Z ratio than the 178Pt. It is found that N=56 determines the asymmetry of systems in this region of the nuclear chart.
