Abstract
The fission excitation functions for 14 compound nuclei covering a mass range from {ital A}=186 to 213 are shown to scale exactly according to the transition state prediction once shell effects are accounted for. The extracted shell effects correlate closely with those obtained from the ground state masses. No effects of transient times longer than 3{times}10{sup {minus}20} sec are visible. Pairing effects are noticeable at excitation energies at few MeV above the barrier. {copyright} {ital 1995} {ital The} {ital American} {ital Physical} {ital Society}.
