Evaporation stage - Emission of IMFs (sequential and simultaneous) - Particle decay widths: - energy-dependent inverse cross sections based on nuclear potential - thermal expansion of emitting source - angular momentum in particle emission -  -emission at energies close to the particle threshold ( A.V. Ignatyuk, 2002 ) Fission stage - Influence of nuclear viscosity on the fission decay width: - analytical time-dependent approach (B. Jurado et al, 2003) - influence of initial conditions - Particle emission on different stages of the fission process ABLA07
