In the last two decades, through technological, experimental and theoretical advances, the
situation in experimental fission studies has changed dramatically. With the use of advanced …

Quasifission competes with fusion, and can suppress the cross sections for formation of
heavy elements by orders of magnitude. Its understanding is important both to map out …

Background: Shell effects have been found to influence both the compound nuclear fission
(CNF) and quasifission processes. Besides quasifission processes, which fission modes …

The characteristics and performance of the newly commissioned neutron detector array at
IUAC are described. The array consists of 100 BC501 liquid scintillators mounted in a semi …

Mass and total kinetic-energy (TKE) distributions of fission fragments from Md 257 nucleus
populated by complete fusion of F 19 with U 238 have been measured in the range of …

The pre-scission α-particle multiplicity (α pre), measured in 16 O (96 MeV)+ 232 Th reaction,
is observed to be significantly lower than the global trend reported earlier. Statistical model …

Mass distributions of fission fragments arising from the slow quasifission (SQF) process,
derived by comparing the measured data with theory for several reactions, show distinct …

Background: In the theoretical analysis of nuclear fission observables, dissipation strength is
often adjusted locally to reproduce the experimental data. The global trend of the dissipation …

Level structures of Ag 110 were studied by in-beam γ-ray spectroscopic techniques using
the Li 7+ Pd 110 reaction at a beam energy of 46 MeV. Two new positive-parity rotational …

The fission fragment mass distributions have been measured in the reactions O 16+ W 184
and F 19+ Ta 181 populating the same compound nucleus Pb 200* at similar excitation …
