Charge polarization calculated with a microscopic model for the fission fragments of U-236
Description
We investigated theoretical methods to estimate the charge polarization of the fission fragments. The
method is based on the microscopic mean-field model with the nucleon degree of freedom, and is represented
in the three-dimensional coordinate space for dealing with any nuclear deformation. We employed the Skyrme
effective interaction for the calculations and uranium-236 as a target nucleus. We reported static and dynamic
methods in which the potential energy surface of the fissioning nucleus concerning the quadrupole and octupole
deformations are used. Although the static method deduced the charge polarization which indicates the nuclei
with the magic number and the octupole deformation, the quantities are not consistent with the existing data
library (Wahl?s systematics). The dynamic method with the iso-energy initial condition on the potential energy
surface showed the finite charge polarization of light and heavy fission fragments which is consistent with the
data library. Furthermore, it indicates that the charge polarization has energy dependence of the initial states of
the dynamic method.
