fragments to the existence of rotational quantum states of the highly deformed nucleus at the barrier for fission. Wilets and Chase 5 have used this picture to fit an angular distribution in the fission 6 of Th 232 induced by neutrons near the threshold. More recently Strutinski, 7 Halpern and Strutinski, 8 and Griffin 9 have presented more detailed developments of the Bohr model applicable when large numbers of quantum states are 5 L.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
