Abstract

In this work we try to settle down the controversial predictions on the effect of doubly magic nuclei 132^{132}Sn and 208^{208}Pb on the mass distributions of fission fragments of super-heavy nuclei. For this we have calculated the mass distribution of super-heavy nuclei from 286^{286}Cn to 306^{306}122 within the dynamical 4-dimensional Langevin approach. We have found that in "light" super-heavies the influence of 208^{208}Pb on the mass distributions is present but negligible small. In "heavy" super-heavies, Z=120-122, the (quasi)symmetric peaks and strongly asymmetric peaks at fragment mass AFA_F close to AFA_F=208 are of comparable magnitude.
