The evaluation of the fission mode and fragment yields of neutron-rich nuclei by the dynamical model

Nucleosynthesis by the rapid neutron-capture process (r-process) produces elements heavier than iron via neutron-rich nuclides, observed in the solar system and stars with various metallicities. In the r-process, fission plays a fundamental role by recycling the matter during neutron irradiation and...

description Nucleosynthesis by the rapid neutron-capture process (r-process) produces elements heavier than iron via neutron-rich nuclides, observed in the solar system and stars with various metallicities. In the r-process, fission plays a fundamental role by recycling the matter during neutron irradiation and by shaping the final r-abundance distribution. Nevertheless, due to the difficulty of experimental approaches, most of the fission data available for r-process calculations are based on theoretical predictions with phenomenological models. In this study, we focused on the transition of fission mode from asymmetric to symmetric in neutron-rich isotopes, which has been suggested in recent experiments for fermium isotopes. We investigated the fission of neutron-rich nuclei by a theoretical calculation based on the dynamical model and employed Langevin equations.
