Fission dynamics within time-dependent Hartree-Fock: Boost-induced fission
نویسندگان
چکیده
Methods: Following upon the work presented in Ref. [1], quadrupole-constrained Hartree-Fock calculations are used to create a potential energy surface. An isomeric state and a state beyond the second barrier peak are excited by means of instantaneous as well as temporally extended gauge boosts with quadrupole shapes. The subsequent deexcitation is studied in a time-dependent Hartree-Fock simulation, with emphasis on fissioned final states. The corresponding fission fragment mass numbers are studied.

Fission dynamics within time-dependent Hartree-Fock: deformation-induced fission
Studies of nuclear fission have been ongoing since the discovery of the process in 1938 by Hahn and Strassmann [1]. The actinide nuclide Pu has long been a case of interest, as spontaneous fission presents itself as a decay mechanism with significant probability, relative to other isotopes in the actinide region. This allows for quantitative comparisons between spontaneous and induced fission [...
متن کاملProbing quantum many-body dynamics in nuclear systems
Quantum many-body nuclear dynamics is treated at the mean-field level with the time-dependent Hartree-Fock (TDHF) theory. Low-lying and high-lying nuclear vibrations are studied using the linear response theory. The fusion mechanism is also described for light and heavy systems. The latter exhibit fusion hindrance due to quasi-fission. Typical characteristics of quasi-fission, such as contact t...

Spontaneous-fission properties of 256 Fm, 258 Fm, and 260 Fm isotopes are studied within the Skyrme-Hartree-Fock+BCS framework. In the particle-hole channel we take the Skyrme SkM * effective force, while in the particle-particle channel we employ the seniority pairing interaction. Three static fission paths for all investigated heavy fermium isotopes are found. The analysis of these fission mo...
متن کاملCollective Inertia and Fission Barriers within the Skyrme - Hartree - Fock Theory
Spontaneous fission barriers, quadrupole inertia tensor, and zero-point quadrupole correlation energy are calculated for 252,256,258 Fm in the framework of the self-consistent Skyrme-Hartree-Fock+BCS theory. Two ways of computing collective inertia are employed: the Gaussian Overlap Approximation to the Generator Coordinate Method and cranking ansatz. The Skyrme results are compared with those ...
متن کاملFission of heavy Λ hypernuclei with the Skyrme-Hartree-Fock approach
Fission-related phenomena of heavy Λ hypernuclei are discussed with the constraint Skyrme-Hartree-Fock+BCS (SHF+BCS) method, in which a similar Skyrme-type interaction is employed also for the interaction between a Λ particle and a nucleon. Assuming that the Λ particle adiabatically follows the fission motion, we discuss the fission barrier height of 239 ΛU. We find that the fission barrier hei...
