Hashe Departent of Physics, Faculty of Science, Cairo University, Giza, Egypt Received: /1/015 Accepted: 30/1/016 ABSTRACT The yields of the collinear ternary fission channels of 60 No were studied in the fraework of the three cluster odel for all possible accopanied light particles of even ass nubers in the range 4 A. The folding nuclear interaction potential is calculated in ters of the M3Y-Reid nucleon-nucleon force. The deforation of the participating fragents and their relative orientations with respect to each other are considered. The suggested ost probable channels are indicated as the ones characterized with a axiu relative yield and showing a peak in the Q-value and iniized with respect to energy. Aong the indicated favored channels, a collinear ternary fission of the 60 No isotope is indicated to be ost probable through the fragentation channels of 58Ce + 6C + 38 Sr 1, 58Ce C Sr, Xe + 8O Zr, 1 58 Ce Be Zr, 1 60 Nd 1 + 4Be Sr, Sn Ar + 34 Se 84, Sn+ 18Ar + 34 Se 40 88, Sn + 16S+ 36 Kr 136 and Te Mg+ 9. Keywords: Ternary fission / Double folding odel/fission Yield/Three cluster ode INTRODUCTION Talking about fission, one thinks alost autoatically about a nucleus that splits into two heavy fragents (binary fission) (1) and the ternary fission, which is defined theatrically as the three fragents are of coparable asses (). The ternary fission process has been extensively studied, both for spontaneous fission decay and neutron induced fission reactions. Several experients (3) have clearly shown that the fission of a nucleus into three coparable fragents could be detected and that the probability of such events could reach 0.03 relative to binary fission events. The two heavy fragents in ternary fission are accopanied by a light charged particle, such as H, He, Be, C, N, or O isotopes as well as heavier nuclei up to ass nuber 36 (4,5). Although it is not one of the usual nuclei predicted in the cluster decay process, the 10 Be particles are observed as eitted light particles once per ~ 10 5 spontaneous fission events (6). Also, ternary fission events have been observed fro 56 Ni (7) and 60 Zn (8) nuclei at high angular oenta through defored shapes where the lighter ass consists of two or three α-particles. In ternary fission, as the ass nuber of the accopanied light particle increases, the probability of the ternary fission process decreases sharply (9). Due to the strong effect of the Coulob field and the barrier properties on the eission probability, we have effects of other paraeters, such as the fissibility paraeter (Z /A), deforations, the isospin asyetry of the parent nucleus, and the cluster preforation probability of light particles inside the parent as well as shell effects (10). It is found that the shell effects ay reduce the ternary fission barriers significantly (11). Although the ternary fission probability is relatively sall; its data are of interest for nuclear physics. An overall study of the ternary fission proble and the related question about the possibility of a three-body clusterization inside heavy nuclei is still an open issue that needs further theoretical and experiental detailed studies (9). In the present paper, a detailed analysis and discussion is conducted on the yield of light charged particles accopanying the fission of 60 No, which has a very high spontaneous fission probability; in the fraework of the three clusters odel (TCM). 319

2 Arab Journal of Nuclear Science and Applications, (), (319-33) 017 Nobeliu (No) is an artificial heavy eleent of atoic nuber Z = 10, (1). Nobeliu has 17 radioisotopes. The first isotope to be synthesized (and correctly identified) was 54 No in There are 1 known radioisotopes with known half-lives whose ass nubers range fro - 6, and 3 isoers, 51 No, 53 No, and 54 No. The present work focuses on the isotope 60 No, the doinant decay ode of this isotope is the spontaneous fission (SF). (13) The three cluster odel is proposed to explain the particle accopanying binary fission of radioactive nuclei. The three cluster odel is developed as an extension of the prefored cluster odel of Gupta and Collaborators (14-18). The advantage of this odel is that, for a fixed third fragents, we can calculate the fragentation potential iniized in charge coordinate (19,0). Fro the theoretical investigations of the ternary fission of 60 No, it is seen that the closed shell effect of any one of the two heavier fragents ay also play an iportant role in ternary fission. However, in these theoretical studies, the probable ternary configuration is generally chosen by soe intelligent guess or fro the Q-value systeatic. The role of the spherical closed shell alone is not enough, and perhaps, the role of the defored closed shell should be taken into account in our study, we will include the deforation and orientation effects of the fragents in detail. The obvious difficulty involved in the theoretical studies of ternary fission is the coplete iniization of the potential energy for the ass asyetry involved in this process. In the case of binary fission of a nucleus having ass nuber (A), the ass asyetry involved has only (A/) cobinations, which further can be iniized with respect to the charge asyetry. THEORTETICAL OUTLINE The three cluster odel (TCM) (0-) is worked out in ters of the collective coordinate of the ass and charge asyetry A1 A Z 1 Z A, Z (1) A1 A Z1 Z Where 1 and stand for heavy and light fragents respectively and the third fragent (light charged particle) in TCM is denoted by 3 and is fixed and hence only the ass asyetry between 1 and is considered. Relative separation distance R, which in TCM characterizes, respectively the nucleon division between the outgoing fragents and the Sharing of the available Q-value to the kinetic energies E i of the fragents (i.e. Q=E 1 +E +E 3 ), with the Q-value for the three decay.

() Where R i (i = 1,, 3) is the radius of the nucleus i The ternary fragentation potential or the driving potential between the three nuclei is defined as 3 V d ( R,, ) Bii V ij ( R,, ) (3) i 1 j i Here B ii are the binding energies of the three fragents in energy units (3), and β are the deforation paraeters of the two heavy fragents A 1 and A (4). V ( R,, ) =V ( R,, ) +V ( R,, ) (4) ij Cij Nij Where V Cij and V Nij are the Coulob and nuclear interaction potentials between the fragents i and j. Here θ is the angle of orientation, i.e. the angle between the syetry axis and the fission axis, with its rotation easured in anti-clockwise direction, β is the deforation paraeters of the fragents and R the relative separation between the two nuclei i and j. To obtain the Coulob potential for two non-overlapping defored nuclei in a uch sipler closed for, several recent studies were ade to describe the interaction between spherical defored 30

We will assue V NN to be the well-known M3Y-Reid force (31).We proceed in siplifying exactly as in the Coulob potential.

Following Ref (19, 3), the surface separation distances s ij for the collinear configuration are considered as s s s & s R s.

A seiclassical forulation of the proble of the penetration of an α - particle through the barrier, based on the Wentzel Kraers - Brillouin (WKB) approxiation (33, 34), was found as a suitable approxiation. The decay width in general was defined as a product of the assault frequency and the penetration probability (35, 36). For penetrability calculations of all the three fragents are fixed and the otion is with respect to the separation distance of the three fragents. The penetrability is the WKB integral, s 1/ P exp V ( s ) Q ds, s t (9) with s t = 0, the touching configuration, as the first turning point, s as the second turning point and s 1 is an interediate point (see Figure (3)) satisfying 1.

The decay path, the Q value and the turning points are also labeled. Figure (3) shows that for the inner and outer turning points, respectively, at s = s t and s, the transission (penetration) probability P consists of three contributions: the penetrability P 1 fro s t to s 1, the de-excitation probability W 1 at s 1, and then the penetrability P fro s 1 to s. Thus, P P W P (11) 1 1 M. Greiner et al. (37) suggested to scale the de-excitation probability W 1 exponentially with the excitation energy E 1 is W1 exp( b E1) (1) For heavy cluster eission the paraeter b is very sall and assued to be 0, this eans that W 1 = 1.

The potential V (s) is the su of the Coulob and attractive potentials, as a function of the surface separation s.

The ost probable ternary fission channel is the one which have the axiu yield. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION The interaction potential (Coulob + nuclear) between the fragents is calculated by increasing the value of surface separation s for collinear eission. The surface separations between fragents 1 and 3 as well as between and 3 are varied uniforly and hence the inter fragent distance between fragents 1 and varies autoatically. Figure (4) presents the penetration probability calculated in collinear configuration of the fragents as a function of fragent ass nubers A 1 and A. In other words, as a function of ass asyetry η A between the fragents A 1 and A (the third fragent ass nuber is ), η A = 0 corresponding to A 1 = A is also shown. The ass nuber in the horizontal axis toward the left side of η A = 0 corresponds to the light fragent ass nuber A and that toward the right side of η A = 0 corresponds to the heavy fragent ass nuber A 1. For every fixed ass pair (A 1, A ) a pair of charges is singled out for which the penetration probability is axiized.

The folding nuclear and Coulob interaction potentials are calculated based on the M3Y-Reid nucleon-nucleon force for the nuclear part. The relative yields are calculated as functions of ass and charge asyetries at a touching configuration.

The ost probable fragent cobinations which have the highest relative yields with the inclusion of β only and with the inclusion of β 4 are found to be changed and the values of their relative yields are increased copared to the spherical case. 331
