Inclusive quasifree electrofission cross section for ${}^{238}\mathrm{U}$

We present results from a joint theoretical and experimental study of inclusive quasifree electrofission of ${}^{238}\mathrm{U}.$ The off-shell cross sections for the quasifree reaction stage have been calculated within the plane wave impulse approximation with distortion corrections included in the effective momentum approximation. Proton and neutron single-particle momentum distributions were calculated in the macroscopic-microscopic approach. The fissility for proton and neutron single hole excited states of the residual nuclei ${}^{237}\mathrm{Pa}$ and ${}^{237,238}\mathrm{U}$ was calculated within the compound nucleus model. Final state interaction corrections to residual nucleus excitation energy were calculated using the imaginary part of the optical potential. The total inclusive electrofission cross section was measured with high absolute precision, and all principal partial contributions are analyzed, in particular, the quasifree one.
