Abstract: (Elsevier)
We discuss dynamically the fusion–fission mechanism in the superheavy mass region. By analyzing the mass distribution of fission fragments, we distinguish between the fusion–fission process and the quasi-fission process. We investigate these two processes using the fluctuation–dissipation model. The three-dimensional Langevin equation is employed. We classify the dynamical process by analyzing the trajectory in the nuclear deformation space. In the superheavy mass region, we found that 90–99% of mass symmetric fission events come from the quasi-fission process, in which the system hardly reaches the spherical region. The fusion cross section is also estimated precisely.
