Beatriz Jurado, Karl-Heinz Schmidt CENBG, Bordeaux, France Supported by EFNUDAT, ERINDA and NEA The GEneral Fission code (GEF) Motivation: Accurate and fast fission code for nuclear technology

A, Z, E* of fissioning nucleus & number of events Competition fission/particle emission for excited nucleus Random sample of the properties of the fission fragments at scission: A 1, Z 1, E* 1, E k 1, J 1, A 2, Z 2, E* 2, E k 2, J 2 Loop over events From Po to Sg and E* <=100 MeV Sampling from distributions that are obtained from a physical model!!! Desexcitation of fission fragments: Prompt neutron multiplicity, E n, angle Prompt gamma multiplicity, Eγ Structure of GEF

List-mode output can be used as an event generator All possible correlations between quantities 235 U(n th,f) Neutron multiplicity A post Output of GEF Results for essentially all fission observables

Ideas behind GEF Combination of physical concepts and experimental information An example: determination of fission-fragment yields

Macroscopic-microscopic model liquid-drop potential With shell effects Two-center shell model calculation by A. Karpov, 2008

Neutron shell-model states of 236U (U. Mosel, H. W. Schmitt, Nucl. Phys. A 165 (1971) 73) Ground state Second barrier … Scission The shell effects that modulate the potential already near saddle are those of the fission fragments! Quantum-mechanical effect caused by the neck! Influence of fragment shells on the fission process

Early influence of fragment shells HF + BCS calculations for fission of 264 Fm C. Simenel and A. S. Umar, Phys. Rev. C 89 (2014) (R) Saddle  R=7.3 fm Scission  R=15 fm Z=50 N=82 Shells of double magic 132 Sn fragments set in at R=9.5 fm, very close to saddle!!

The separability principle Stiffness of macroscopic potential  Deduced from experimental yields of symmetric mode for each fissioning nucleus Position, strength and curvature of shells  Deduced from experimental yields and shapes of asymmetric modes, essentially the same for all fissioning nuclei Macroscopic potential depends on fissioning nucleus Shell effects depend essentially on the fission fragments Description of a large variety of fissioning systems with the same set of parameters!! Separability principle

Stiffness of the macroscopic potential is a unique function of the fissility of the fissioning nucleus! Assuming a harmonic oscillator in a heat bath Mulgin et al., NPA 640 (1998) 375 Empirical information on the macroscopic potential 201TlY(%) Mass AA

Böckstiegel et al., NPA 802 (2008) 12 GSI data with long isotopic chains: New empirical result: ≈ 54 Strong variation of ! Unik et al., 1973 ≈ 140 Shell effects in neutron number Empirical information on the main shells

Final potential Interplay between liquid-drop potential and shells explains observed transition from symmetric to asymmetric fission Liquid-drop potential Shell

Because of the use of the stiffness from experimental data, dynamical effects are automatically included! Shell effects are fixed but the stiffness of the macroscopic potential changes on the way to scission. Mass asymmetry is influenced by the potential at earlier stages of the descent. “Memory” effect! Andreyev et al. Sov. J. Nucl. Phys. 43 (1986) 727 and Nucl. Phys. A 502 (1989) 405c Experimental symmetric yields reflect an effective potential! How about dynamics?

All the results obtained with a single parameter set! Comparison with experimental data and evaluations See: K.-H. Schmidt, B. Jurado, Ch. Amouroux, JEFF-Report 24 (June 2014) for comprehensive comparison of GEF with all possible fission observables

Yields, spontaneous fission

Yields, thermal-neutron-induced fission

Data spoiled by 239Pu target contaminant!

Yields, thermal-neutron-induced fission

Yields, higher energies

 2 deviations between GEF and experimental data Amongst the 9 discrepant cases only 1 (229Th(n th,f)) can be clearly attributed to a deficiency in the model!

Shell effect at Z=44 needed to reproduce all the data in a coherent way! This shell is responsible for the asymmetric fission observed for light, neutron-deficient fissioning nuclei!!! 180Hg No shell at Z=44 180Hg With shell at Z=44 GEF: a useful tool for fundamental physics

 GEF combination of physical concepts from quantum mechanics and statistical mechanics and specific experimental information within a general approach  The assumption of a universal set of shells for all fissioning nuclei gives an excellent description of the fission-fragment yields This remarkable finding can be useful in the development of microscopic theories, and microscopic theories can help understand the positions of the effective shells!  Enhanced asymmetric mode around 239Pu and double-humped distribution around 180Hg described by the same fragment shell at Z approx. 44  Extension to very exotic neutron-rich fissioning nuclei of interest for the r-process in stellar nucleosynthesis  Inclusion of ternary fission  etc… Download and further information can be found in : or Conclusions...and perspectives
