Anomalous fission fragment angular distribution in the 11B+243Am reaction at near-barrier energies
- 1. Radiochemistry Division, Bhabha Atomic Research Centre, Mumbai-400085 (India)
Description
Fission fragment angular distributions were measured in 11B+243Am reaction in the beam energy (Elab) range of 60-72 MeV. Experimental anisotropies in 11B+243Am reaction were found to be higher than the values calculated using the statistical theory indicating contribution from noncompound nucleus fission. For 11B+243Am reaction, entrance channel mass asymmetry is higher than the Businaro-Gallone critical mass asymmetry. Observation of anomalous fission fragment angular distribution in 11B+243Am reaction possibly indicates that the target deformation plays an important role in deciding the contribution from noncompound nucleus fission
