Abstract

We have found a small inclination of the symmetry axis of the prompt fission gamma-quanta angular distribution relative to the “fission axis” in binary fission of 235U induced by cold polarized neutrons using the neutron beam line V13 at Berlin Neutron Scattering Center (BENSC). The sign of the shift depends on the direction of the cold neutron beam polarization and it can only be explained by the quasi-classical rotation of the fissile nucleus at the scission point.
