A dynamical model based on one-dimensional Langevin equations was used to calculate the average pre-fission multiplicities of neutrons, light charged particles, and the fission probability for compound nucleus 178 W produced in fusion reactions. The pre-scission multiplicities of particles and fission probability are calculated and compared with the experimental data over a wide range of excitation energy. A modified wall and window dissipation with a reduction coefficient, ks, has been used in the Langevin equations for reproducing experimental data. It was shown that the results of the calculations are in good agreement with the experimental data by using values of ks in the range 0.24 ks 0.47.

A stochastic approach based on four-dimensional (4D) dynamical model has been used to simulate the fission process of the excited compound nuclei [Formula: see text]Fr, [Formula: see text]Fr and [Formula: see text]Fr produced in fusion reactions. Effects of isospin and dissipation coefficient of the [Formula: see text] coordinate, [Formula: see text], on estimation of the evaporation residue (ER) cross-section, the prescission neutron multiplicity, the variance of the mass and energy distributions of fission fragments and the anisotropy of fission fragments angular distribution have been investigated for the excited compound nuclei [Formula: see text]Fr, [Formula: see text]Fr and [Formula: see text]Fr. Three collective shape coordinates [Formula: see text] plus the projection of total spin of the compound nucleus to the symmetry axis, [Formula: see text], were considered in the 4D dynamical model. In the 4D dynamical model, the magnitude of the dissipation coefficient of [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], was considered as a free parameter and its magnitude inferred by fitting measured data on the ER cross-section. Results of the extracted dissipation coefficients of [Formula: see text] for different isotopes of Fr were shown that the magnitude of the dissipation coefficient of [Formula: see text] increases with decreasing isospin of fissioning compound nucleus. It was also shown that the prescission neutron multiplicity and the anisotropy of fission fragments angular distribution increase with increasing isospin whereas the variance of the mass and energy distributions of fission fragments decrease with increasing isospin of fissioning compound nucleus. Furthermore, it was shown that the calculated values of prescission neutron multiplicity and the variance of the mass distribution of fission fragments for the excited compound nuclei [Formula: see text]Fr, [Formula: see text]Fr and [Formula: see text]Fr decrease with the dissipation strength of [Formula: see text], whereas the variance of the energy distribution of fission fragments and the anisotropy of fission fragments angular distribution increase with the dissipation strength of [Formula: see text].
