Abstract

A new expression for a calculation of the pre-neutron emission average total kinetic energy of fission fragments (TKE), which takes into account the dependence of TKE on both Z2/A1/3 and the excitation energy of the fissioning nuclei, is found using the 728 experimental values of the TKE. These 728 values of TKE for 115 fissioning nuclei with the numbers of proton and nucleons in the ranges 48≤Z≤120 and 78≤A≤302 are measured by various experimental groups in different reactions at various excitation energies of the fissioning nuclei. The dependence of the TKE on the excitation energy of the fissioning nuclei is clearly shown for many nuclei. The account of the excitation energy dependence of the TKE leads to the smallest value of the root-mean-square deviation between the experimental and theoretical TKE values.
