Abstract
On the basis of a compilation of experimentally determined fission barriers a detailed analysis of the isospin dependence of the fissility parameter is presented and compared with the liquid-drop and droplet-model predictions. Shortcomings of the droplet model in the description of strongly deformed nuclei requiring a further refinement show up. There is evidence for surprisingly low fission barriers for light nuclei.
