Fission of atomic nuclei often produces mass asymmetric fragments. However, the origin of this asymmetry was believed to be different in actinides and in the sub-lead region [A. Andreyev {\it et al.}, Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 105}, 252502…

We implement the Fourier shape parametrization within the point-coupling covariant density functional theory to construct the collective space, potential energy surface (PES), and mass tensor, which serve as inputs for the time-dependent…
Actinide nuclei exhibit mass-asymmetric fission at low energy due to shell structure. The fission-fragment mass distributions produced at high energy tend to have a symmetric shape due to smearing of shell effects. On the other hand, the…
