A. Darrigo et al., THE PROBABILITY OF POPULATING THE 2ND POTENTIAL WELL STATES IN FISSION DYNAMICS, International journal of modern physics E, 4(2), 1995, pp. 443-455
We study the probability of populating the second well states in the d
e-excitation of the compound nucleus during the competition between fi
ssion and emission of light particles. We consider the cases of underd
amped and overdamped fission processes caused by a different influence
of nuclear dissipation. The probability dependencies on the second we
ll depth and the excitation energy are also analyzed.
