Mass Distribution in 12C Induced Fission of 232Th

Abstract: The recoil catcher technique and y spectrometry of fission products were used to determine the cumulative independent crosssections of 25 fission products in the 79 MeV 12 C induced fission of 232 Th. The charge distribution parameters were estimated from the independent cross-sections of the shielded nuclides 122 Sb, 124 Sband 126 Sb. The measured cumulative/independent cross-sections were converted to chain yields. The mass distribution is a broad Gaussian with a most probable mass of 119.0 + 0.7 and FWH M o… Show more

“…Recently Parker et al [2,3] carried out similar studies on 16 0-induced fission of 238 U at 101 and 135 MeV. The results on 12 C-induced fission of 232 Th were reported by Manohar et al [4], These investigations have been useful in the understanding of the nature of the reaction by comparison of the mass distribution with that observed in the low energy fission, as well as in alpha particle and proton induced fission of actinides.…”

“…Taking initial values of v, and s as 9 and 0.88 [2,4] respectively, the measured cumulative/independent cross-sections were converted to mass yields using the Equations (2) and (3). These parameters were used to obtain symmetric mass distributions with minimum deviations from the measured yields.…”

“…They explained their data by assuming two distinct saddle points for symmetric and asymmetric fission as put forward by Moller and Nilsson [7] and taking into account the multichance fission effect. We reported [8] radiochemical data on mass resolved fragment angular distribution in alpha induced fission of a32Th where we observed large increase in anisotropy from 1.25 to 1.80 with increase in mass asymmetry. Though the results so far show that there is mass dependence of anisot.ropy, the doubt exists that this dependence may not be real and can arise from multichance fission [9].…”

“…The mass distribution in complete fusion fission of actinides with low Z heavy ions (e.g. 12 C, 16 O) has been found to be broad symmetric Gaussian [2,3]. On the other hand, the mass distribution in the fission following transfer reaction in such systems has been found to be asymmetric, resembling low energy fission of actinides [4][5][6][7].…”
