Abstract
The effect of the non-axial quadrupole deformation γ2 on the height of the static fission barrier B f of heaviest nuclei is studied. Even-even nuclei with the proton number 92 ≤ Z ≤ 122 and the neutron number 136 ≤ N ≤ 188 are considered. The analysis is done within a macroscopic-microscopic approach with the use of a large deformation space. It is found that the effect reduces B f by up to about 2 MeV.
