M. Morjean et al., FISSION LIFETIME MEASURED BY THE BLOCKING TECHNIQUE AS A FUNCTION OF EXCITATION-ENERGY IN THE 24 A-CENTER-DOT-MEV U-238-28 REACTION(SI), Nuclear physics. A, 630(1-2), 1998, pp. 200-207
The blocking technique has been used to infer fission lifetimes as a f
unction of excitation energy for uranium-like nuclei formed in the U+S
i reactions at 24 MeV/nucleon. The fission lifetimes are found larger
than 10(-19) s for excitation energies up to about 250 MeV.
