Description

The decay of compound nucleus 238U, formed in the neutron induced reaction is studied using the dynamical cluster decay model (DCM) at two excitation energies lying across the Coulomb barrier. The role of deformations in the decay of 238U has been studied by considering the quadrupole deformations (β2) within the optimum orientation approach (θiopt ) and with the spherical choice of fragmentation. The calculated results show an excellent agreement with the experimental data for the fission cross sections (σfission). (author)
