Systematics of the mass-asymmetric fission of excited nuclei from 176Os to 206Pb

The competition between the dominant mass-asymmetric and rarer narrow mass-symmetric fission modes in actinide nuclei are controlled by deformed and spherical shell effects. The low energy fission of 80180Hg was recently observed to be strongly mass-asymmetric, indicating that despite spherical shel...
