“…Thereafter, extensive experimental 2-7 and theoretical [8][9][10][11][12][13] studies have been performed on this exotic decay process. The renewed interest in the investigations on the ternary fission modes [14][15][16][17][18][19] can be attributed to the still unanswered question of the detection of superheavy elements and the spontaneous fission of actinide isomers at low energies. The upper experimental limit for symmetric nuclear ternary fission relative to binary fission lie between 10 −6 and 10 −8 (see Refs.…”

Taking the interacting potential as the sum of Coulomb and proximity potential, 34 Si accompanied cold ternary fission of 242 Cm has been studied with fragments in the equatorial and collinear configuration. The cold valley plots (plot of driving potential versus mass number of fragments) and the calculations on the yields for the charge minimized fragments have been used to obtain the favorable fragment combinations. Thus, our study on the 34 Si accompanied ternary fission of 242 Cm reveals the role of near doubly magic shell closures (of 130 Sn, 132 Te, 134 Te, etc.) in cold ternary fission. The comparison of relative yield reveals that in 34 Si accompanied ternary fission of 242 Cm, collinear configuration is preferred than the equatorial configuration. The relative yield for binary exit channel is found to be higher than that of ternary fragmentation (both equatorial and collinear configuration). The predicted yield for the binary fragmentation of 4 He and 34 Si from 242 Cm are in agreement with the experimental data.

“…The probability for 6.17fission (5%) and internal conversion (< 1%) are much less. The isomeric state has been populated and measured in neutron bombardment reactions at low energy (< 5 MeV)[20,[22][23][24][25].…”

The detection of illicit weapons-grade nuclear material is a significant technical challenge receiving a great deal of attention in the nuclear community. A proposed solution is to actively bombard the I would like to offer Dr. Jennifer J. Ressler my sincere gratitude, for without her this research would not have been possible. From bringing me onto her team, arranging the funding that supported this work, revising my documents, to answering countless questions, she has been immensely helpful. Equally deserving of special recognition is Dr. Todd S. Palmer, who has served as my adviser for the past five years. Dr. Palmer has given me the inspiration, guidance, motivation, and professional advice I needed in order to be successful both academically and professionally. I would also like to recognize Dr. David M. Hamby, whose engaging teaching style and course materials were invaluable to the research performed for this thesis.
