Abstract

Excitation functions and angular distributions have been measured for the fission of 232Th, 238U, 244Pu and 248Cm induced by 86Kr and 136Xe ions at energies in the vicinity of the Coulomb barrier. No large differences as a function of either target or projectile were found. These results suggest that the main process occuring is not Coulomb fission.
