Mass asymmetry and total-kinetic-energy release in the spontaneous fission of 262[105]

Description

Mass and total--kinetic-energy (TKE) distributions of fission fragments from the spontaneous fission of 262[105] and 256Fm have been obtained. No events with anomalously high TKE were observed, contrary to the theoretical expectations. The mass distribution from the fission of 262[105] is very probably asymmetric and similar to distributions obtained from all spontaneously fissioning systems with the exception of 257Fm and 259Fm
