Angular momentum of fission fragments

FISSION FRAGMENT ANGULAR ANISOTROPIES AND INERTIA PARAMETERS

An analysis of selected fission fragment angular distributions from helium-ion induced fission is made using an exact theoretical expression. Theoretical anisotropies obtained with the transition state model are compared with their corresponding values deduced from the statistical scission model. The nuclear moment of inertia extracted from the model calculations are compared with their est...

Angular momenta of even-even fragments in the neutronless fission of Cf

The recent advent of experimental techniques in which the dynamical characteristics of fission fragments are determined more accurately prompted us to investigate the angular momentum acquired by fragments in a model which describes the cold ~neutronless! fission of Cf as the decay of a giant nuclear molecule. The molecular configuration is a consequence of the interplay between the attractive ...

Angular Momentum in Chemistry

Noting that current chemical theory is based almost exclusively on electronic energy and spin variables the equal importance of orbital angular momentum is explored in this paper. From its classical definition the angular momentum of electrons in an atom is shown to obey Laplace’s equation, which automatically leads to discrete values in terms of spherical harmonics. This analysis assumes a con...
