Description

Heavy-ion induced fission reactions are investigated. The problem of obtaining a representative set of fission-cross section data, so that it would be possible to test both the mass and angular momentum dependence of fission barriers in the mass region 150<A<210, is discussed. A statistical model utilizing the barrier calculations of Sterk has been developed. Results on fission cross sections for Po, Os and Er isotopes produced and excited in a variety of heavy-ion reactions induced by projectiles from 9Be through 64Ni. The experimental data clearly show the qualitative effects of angular momentum, excitation energy and fissility on the fission cross section. They provide an ideal testing ground for theoretical models of fission in this mass region
