Abstract
Microscopic aspects of the fission channels of Cf-252 are studied using the U(3) selection rule. Effective U(3) symmetry labels, which are consistent with deformation, are used to characterize the parent and daughter nuclei. Our study shows a non-uniform structural dependence of the relative prefere nce for different fission channels.
