Abstract
Theoretical tools at the level of the mean field approximation are used to explore the spontaneous fission properties of odd-A nuclei. The tools rely on the equal (or uniform) filling approximation to deal with the unpaired nucleon in a time-reversal preserving manner. Realistic calculations have been carried out with the finite range Gogny force D1S, which was tailored to reasonably reproduce fission properties in the actinides. The preliminary results obtained for the nucleus 235 U are analyzed and the physical origin for the hindrance factor for the spontaneous fission half life is discussed.
