Effect of transients in nuclear fission on multiplicity of prescission neutrons
Gargi Chaudhuri, Santanu Pal
Abstract
Transients in the fission of highly excited nuclei are studied in the framework of the Langevin equation. Time-dependent fission widths are calculated which show that after the initial transients, a steady flow towards the scission point is established not only for nuclei which have fission barriers but also for nuclei which have no fission barrier. It is shown from a comparison of the transient time and the fission life time that fission changes from a diffusive to a transient dominated process over a certain transition region as a function of the spin of the fissioning nucleus. Multiplicities of prescission neutrons are calculated in a statistical model with as well as without a single swoop description of fission and they are found to differ in the transition region. We however find that the difference is marginal and hence a single swoop picture of fission though not strictly valid in the transition region can still be used in the statistical model calculations.
