Abstract

A scheme is presented for quantitative calculations of the distribution of rotational angular momenta in primary fission fragments. The wave function of the bending mode excitation at the scission point is expanded in angular momentum components. As an example, the distribution of rotational angular momentum is estimated for the fragment of mass 108 from the thermal neutron fission of 239Pu. The experimental literature on the subject is reviewed.
