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…

Fission of $^{180}$Hg produces mass asymmetric fragments which are expected to be influenced by deformed shell-effects at N=56 in the heavy fragment and Z=34 in the light fragment [G. Scamps and C. Simenel, arXiv:1904.01275 (2019)]. To…
Level density $\rho(E,N,Z)$ is derived for a nuclear system with a given energy $E$, neutron $N$, and proton $Z$ particle numbers, within the semiclassical extended Thomas-Fermi and periodic-orbit theory beyond the Fermi-gas saddle-point…
