Abstract:The experimental results of sequential fission are presented for collision of238U (5.4MeV/u) on48Ca,45S and238U(6.0MeV/u) on16O,48Ca,45Sc,48Ti,58Fe,64Ni and89Y targets. The measurements of ternary events in exit channel have been performed by triple coincidence among 4 PPAC with area of 20 cm×30 cm. The reconstrction of ternary events are performed by direct kinematics and the fission partner among three fragments is identified by relative velocities between them. The detection geomentry efficiency is determind by a Monte-Carlo simulation.
Before the sequential fission, U-like fragments are scattered near grazing angle. The most probable value of TKEL in the scattering process associated with S.F.changes from 25 MeV to 55 MeV for different reaction systems. The angular distributions of debris of S.F. in second C.M. are isotropic.
In conclusion, because of lower fission threshold at Uranium region, the sequential fission mainly follows quasielastic scattering, in S.F. cross-section σS.Fthere is strong shell effect. A simple relationship between σS.Fover σR, the total reaction cross-section and Sommerfeld parameters S for nuclei with magic number are obtained.
