In [1-3] the virtual mechanism of ternary fission of the compound nucleus $(A, Z)$, formed by the capture of the thermal neutron by target-nucleus $(A-1, Z)$ as the two-stage process was suggested. At the first stage light particle $(A-A_{LP},Z-Z_{LP})$ with kinetic energy close to the Coulomb barrier height is emitted from the nucleus $(A, Z)$ with the forming of the virtual state of the...
Triple collinear fission of a weakly excited compound fissile nucleus is analyzed on the basis of a sequential two-stage mechanism associated at the first stage with double fission of this nucleus with the formation of two fission fragments, and at the second stage with double fission of one of these fragments. In this case, the presentation of coldness of fission fragments at the first and...
In series of the photo-fission reactions, namely, $^{235, 238}$U(γ, f), $^{232}$Th(γ, f), $^{242}$Pu(γ, f) we have found that some part of the fission fragments (FFs) are presumably born in the state of the fission isomer with the yield Y ≈ $10^{-3}$ binary fission and with the lifetime $\tau_{isom}$ > 400 nsec [1, 2]. A binary break-up of such fragments was observed when they pass through a...
In the past, there were multiple attempts to find the so-called “true ternary fission” i.e. ternary fission with comparable masses of the fragments. So far, it has not been done, at least not in the frame of the traditional experimental approaches. In a series of our experiments, we have observed ternary partition of the heavy nuclei [1, 2] when one of the fragments of binary fission undergoes...

Одним из наиболее характерных следствий кластеризации в легких ядрах является наличие вращательных полос со структурой α+кор. Наиболее хорошо изученным с этой точки зрения является ядро 20Ne, благодаря низкой энергии связи α-частицы. В то же время структура возбужденных состояний соседних самосопряженных ядер до сих пор является предметом обсуждения, даже для такого хорошо изученного ядра, как...
В работе [1] были представлены результаты анализа спектра 7Не, заселямого в реакции 6Не(d,p) в инверсной кинематике.

The structure of excited states and even their energy spectrum for the 12C nucleus, oddly enough, is still the subject of consideration [1, 2]. The problem is that a number of poorly identified broad resonance states lying above the Hoyle state (7.65 MeV, 0+) and having an α-cluster structure overlap significantly. Against their background there are a number of levels lying below the nucleon...
The 7Li nucleus has a pronounced cluster nature as α+t. However, the one-nucleon component of the ground state is also of interest for a more complete understanding of the structure of the nucleus. Also it may be important in the nuclear-astrophysical processes of the Big Bang, such as the reaction 7Li(3H,4He), which leads to the 7Li nucleus destroy and a change in the 6Li/7Li abundance ...

The $^{48}$Ca + $^{208}$Pb reaction is distinguished by its unique combination of advantages in heavy-ion fusion studies, as both interacting partners are doubly magic nuclei. Moreover, the $^{208}$Pb target provides a cold fusion pathway, while the neutron-rich $^{48}$Ca projectile provides a significant neutron excess, favoring the formation of neutron-rich compound nuclei.
The survival...

Deuteron-proton elastic scattering is considered in the multiple-scattering-expansion model. Four reaction mechanisms are included into consideration: one-nucleon exchange, single scattering, double scattering, and delta-isobar excitation in an intermediate state. The model calculates the reaction amplitude, which makes it possible to find the angular dependence of both the differential cross...

Nowadays applying of multinucleon transfer reactions (MNT) in collisions between heavy nuclei are supposed to be a promising approach to produce new neutron-rich nuclei including nuclei near the N = 126 shell closure. The investigation of the properties of these nuclei is very important for understanding of nucleosynthesis processes. To reach the «island of stability» using of heavy systems in...
Pairing is a key feature of the nucleon-nucleon (NN) interaction that leads to the characteristic $J^\pi = 0^+$ of the nuclear ground state in even-even nuclei and the characteristic odd-even staggering in the binding energies of nuclei.
In this contribution, I will discuss how the two-nucleon transfer reactions allow us to investigate the properties of pair strength. The basic idea is that...
Recently, there has been significant progress in the use of ab inito approaches for theoretical studies of nuclear structure, which is why there is increasing interest in the structure of the lightest exotic nuclei, the description of which is an important test of ab inito approaches.

В настоящее время в теоретических исследованиях свойств легких ядер важное место занимают ab initio методы описания атомных ядер, то есть подходы использующие реалистические нуклон-нуклонные потенциалы. Базовым среди этих методов является оболочечная модель ядра без инертного кора (NCSM). Эта модель дает возможность с хорошей точностью рассчитывать энергии и волновые функции основных и...
В работе [1] выдвинута гипотеза о том, что расхождение в экспериментальных значениях длины нейтрон-нейтронного рассеяния $a_{nn}$, полученных в реакциях с тремя частицами в конечном состоянии, может быть связано с влиянием 3$N$-сил. Можно предположить, что подобный эффект будет наблюдаться в случае измерения низкоэнергетических характеристик $pp$-взаимодействия ($a_{pp}$ и $E_{pp}$) в реакциях...

The experimental setup consisted of two position-sensitive MWPC counters, which also allowed simultaneous...
One of the actual problems of modern nuclear physics is the study of the interaction mechanism of nuclei and the study of competing processes in their interaction. Study of competition between compound nucleus fission and quasifission in heavy-ion-induced reactions and its dependence on the reaction entrance channel are important for picking up the right target-projectile combination for the...
Pre–fission neutron spectra influence the partitioning of fission energy between excitation energy and total kinetic energy of fission fragments. It might be assumed that the (n,xnf) and (p,xnf) neutron contribution, i.e. PFNS shapes might depend on the entrance channel. For incident neutron energies from fission threshold up to En ~20 MeV prompt fission neutron spectra (PFNS) of 238U(n,F)...
Recent research has primarily focused on fusion reactions induced by heavy-ion collisions involving projectiles such as $^{51}$V and $^{50}$Ti as potential pathways to extend the known isotopic ranges and to explore new elements. The synthesis pathways of superheavy elements are modeled using the dinuclear system (DNS) approach [1, 2]. The DNS model comprehensively calculates the capture cross...
Angular anisotropy of secondary neutrons was evidenced in neutron emission spectra (NES) of 239Pu+n in 1972, and in prompt fission neutron spectra (PFNS) of 239Pu(n, F) in 2019, it might be predicted for 238,40,241.242Pu(n, F) PFNS. In case of NES angular anisotropy is due to direct excitation of collective levels and pre-equilibrium/semi-direct mechanism (states in the continuum are excited)...
Recent experimental and theoretical studies have shown that it is the clustering mechanism that underlies the formation of various fission modes of heavy nuclei [1-4]. The ability to model locally strong and Coulomb interactions of nucleons at the nuclear scale using a new distributed approach and the development of high-performance computing allow a better understanding of the details of the...

The off-line γ-ray spectroscopy associated with high purity...
Spontaneous ternary decay of the 252Cf was observed in series of experiments carried out in Flerov Lab. of Nuclear Reactions, JINR [1-3]. In those experiments, the existence of a new type of ternary decay in the reaction 235U(n𝑡ℎ,f) and 252Cf(sf), namely collinear cluster tri-partition (CCT), was reported. It is also observed that spontaneous fission products with the mass number around...
In heavy-ion induced reactions, the interaction mechanism is primarily governed by the projectile beam energy and angular momentum ($L$) of the composite system. The collision of two heavy nuclei can generate a significantly large reaction angular momentum. This is because heavy-ion projectile beams ($Z > 4$) can transfer more $L$ to the nucleus in a given reaction compared to light-ion beams....
The $^{238}$U($^{54}$Cr,4n)$^{288}$Lv and $^{242}$Pu($^{50}$Ti,3-4n)$^{288,289}$Lv reactions have been studied at the gas-filled separator DGFRS-2 at the SHE Factory at Flerov Laboratory of Nuclear Reactions, Joint Institute for Nuclear Research.

Fission of heavy nuclei induced by neutrons of low and intermediate energies (up to 100 MeV) typically occurs at relatively low angular momentum. As a result, the anisotropy of the angular distribution of fission fragments with respect to the direction of the incident neutron's motion is determined by the distribution of the projection K of the spin of the fissioning nucleus onto the axis of...
The Geant4 [1-3] low energy nuclear models are used to simulate final states in hadron- and ion-induced inelastic collisions with nuclei in high and moderate energy generators. The pre-compound model [4] ensures a seamless transition from the kinetic reaction stage (governed by high energy inelastic interaction) to the equilibrium phase (described by statistical deexcitation models). The...

This discrepancy between experimental data and statistical model predictions led to...

При моделировании электромагнитных процессов фотоядерными реакциями ((γ, 1n), (γ, 2n)...) часто пренебрегают, поскольку фотоядерные сечения сопоставимы с электромагнитными γ-взаимодействиями только в области гигантского дипольного резонанса. Однако ядерные процессы способны поглотить γ-кванты значительно большей энергии, чем атомные электромагнитные процессы, поэтому в ряде задач моделирования...

The study presents a new method for determining the critical neck in nuclear fission, based on the analysis of fragment spin characteristics. The key difference from other approaches, such as [1,2], lies in using experimental data on fragment spin distributions [3] instead of the conventional analysis of mass distributions. This choice is motivated by the greater sensitivity of spin...
The characteristics of various nuclear processes are rather simple to calculate in statistical model [1-4]. In particular, the transition-width distribution is described by the Porter–Thomas equation, there are no correlations between different partial widths, the strength function of $\beta$-transitions $S_{\beta}(\textit{E})$ depends smoothly on energy, and the ratios of the amplitudes for...
In this work, we studied the total reaction cross sections for the $^{10,11,12}$Be nuclei on the $^{28}$Si target by the 4π method based on the registration of the prompt γ quanta and neutrons accompanying the interaction using the multidetector spectrometer.

Modern approaches to describe the dynamics of nuclear fission make extensive use of the Langevin formalism [1,2], which effectively accounts for the stochastic nature of the process. However, the problem of correctly determining the parameters of the random force in this approach remains unresolved. This issue becomes particularly relevant for low-energy fission, where quantum effects [3] play...
