Theoretical description of fission stochastic approach collective variables (shape of the nucleus) a) Fokker-Planck equation b) Langevin equations Langevin equations describe the time evolution of the collective variables like the evolution of Brownian particle that interact stochastically with a ‘heat bath’. internal degrees of freedom (‘heat bath’)

The types of dissipations The two-body dissipation (short mean free path) (Davies et al. 1976) originates from individual two-body collisions of particles, like in ordinary fluids. The one-body dissipations (long mean free path) (Blocki et al. 1978) originates from collisions of independent particles with moving time-dependent potential well (‘container’ with fixed volume). Two limiting cases: compact shapes (wall formula), necked-in shapes (wall-and- window formula). It is currently accepted that one- body mechanism dominates in the dissipation of collective energy. Due to Pauli blocking principe two-body interactions are very unprobable. The dissipation of collective energy into internal

Conclusions 1 The calculated parameters of fission fragments mass-energy distributions and prescission neutron multiplicities are in a good quantitative agreement with experimental data at the values of 0.5 k s 0.25 for the nuclei lighter than Th. For heavy nuclei the values of 0.2 k s 0.1 are necessary to reproduce parameters of the mass-energy distributions and k s 0.25 for prescission neutron multiplicities. 2 In order to get more precise information on dissipation in fission it is necessary to analyze other observables (for example prescission charged particles) and investigate fission properties in other type of reactions (for example fragmentation-fission reactions). It is interesting also to investigate the coordinate and/or temperature dependence of dissipation.
