Abstract

Fission of highly excited nuclei is affected by the viscous character of the system motion in deformation coordinates as is reported for very heavy nuclei with Z ⩾ 90. The long-time-scale fission was proved for such systems formed in heavy-ion-induced reactions. The overdamped diabatic motion may influence also fission of the spallation-residue products in reactions with protons at intermediate energy. In the present work, the experimental results on fission-to-spallation ratio are analyzed and the evidences for the long-time-scale fission are found in the fission excitation functions for medium-mass targets with Z = 70–75.
