Implementation of extended wood-saxon potential in 232Th nuclear fission mass yield calculation

Abstract

Fission mass yields of 232Th have been calculated by using an extended wood-saxon potential. Through non-mean field theory, the obtained eigen value and eigen function are used to determine resonance width parameter and cross-section of isolated level. By averaging cross-section technique and the Bohr model of compound nuclei, fission cross-sections are well produced. The resulted fission cross-section is implemented to obtain mass yield curve, which it is compared with ENDF.
