| dc.description.abstract | The pre-scission time in the de-excitation of highly excited 178W produced in the reaction of 2ONe + 165Ho at 50A MeV was determined as a function of fission fragment mass asymmetry. The techniques employed used the pre-scission and post scission multiplicities of alpha particles, measured in coincidence with the fission fragments, to determine excitation energy of the fissioning nucleus at scission. Then the fission time was evaluated using statistical model calculations. It was found for a compound system of mass 178 amu and excitation energy of 580 MeV that the fission time is [ ] 1 x 10-20 s regardless of the asymmetry. | en |
