Abstract

The shortest path problem is solved and applied to the calculations of half lives with respect to spontaneous fission of heavy nuclei. The dynamical programming method of Bellman and Kalaba is used to find the fission path in the i-dimensional space of deformation parameters. Fission half lives of heavy isotopes (Z in [100, 110]) are shown and compared to the experimental data.
