A dynamical model, which takes into account all stages of fission induced by stopped antiprotons (atomic cascade, intranuclear cascade, evaporation cascade, fission of a compound nucleus, and evaporation from fission fragments), has been formulated. In particular, the dynamics of the descent of fissioning nuclei from the saddle point to the scission point has been described by the diffusion model. The data on {bar p}-induced fission have been analyzed in the framework of this model and a good agreement between the experiment and theory has been observed. 17 refs., 8 figs.
