Abstract

The analytical superasymmetric fission model, successful in the study of extremely asymmetric decay modes like α‐decay and heavy ion radioactivities, is applied to cold fission phenomena. The three groups of processes are described in a unifield manner, showing that cold fission could be considered heavy cluster emission. For 234U all groups have been detected. The highest symmetry of the gragment mass distributions should be observed for the neutron rich nucleus 264Fm, leading to doubly magic products 132Sn. The most probable light fragments from cold fission of 234,236U, 239Np and 240Pu are 100Zr, 104,106,108Mo respectively, in good agreement with experimental data.
