- eds.
The instability towards fission of rotating compound nuclei in the superheavy mass region (formed, for example, by heavy ion collisions) is studied. The investigation is carried out by calculating the effective potential energy surfaces and hence the fission barriers of rotating nuclei with a macroscopic-- microscopic method. The method takes into account nuclear shell and pairing effects in the effective potential energy as opposed to the macroscopic method of Cohen, Plasil and Swiatecki, who have calculated fission barriers of rotating charged liquid drops.
