Abstract

Fission dynamics of hot nuclei have been investigated using the two-dimensional Langevin equation. Including particle evaporation in the continuous limit, prescission multiplicities of neutrons, protons, and α particles have been calculated. Both the calculated number of prescission neutrons and the average total kinetic energy of fission fragments are consistent with experimental values when one-body dissipation is assumed. Unusually strong hydrodynamical two-body viscosity also reproduces the experimental neutron multiplicity, but it significantly underestimates the average kinetic energy.
