We are promoting a fission study using multi-nucleon transfer reactions, where excited states in neutron-rich actinide nuclei, which cannot be accessed by particle capture and/or fusion reactions, are populated. This allows us to study fission in the new region of chart of nuclei. Also, the excited states in the fissioning nucleus are widely populated in the reactions, thus the effects of excitation energy on fission can be investigated. Experiments were carried out at the JAEA tandem facility in Tokai, Japan. We studied reactions using the 
O beam (
9MeV/u) and several actinide target nuclei such as 
Th, 
U, 
Np, 
Cm. Ejectile nuclei and thus the transfer channels were identified by a newly developed silicon 
E-E detectors. The produced nuclei in one experiment reached more than fifteen. Fission fragment mass distributions (FFMDs) were measured for each isotopes. Measured FFMDs are reproduced by a calculation based on the fluctuation-dissipation model (Langevin-type calculation), where effects of multi-chance fission were included. We also started to measure the prompt neutrons accompanied by fission.

被引用回数：41 パーセンタイル：92.89(Astronomy & Astrophysics)It is shown that the multinucleon transfer reactions is a powerful tool to study fission of exotic neutron-rich actinide nuclei, which cannot be accessed by particle-capture or heavy-ion fusion reactions. In this work, multinucleon transfer channels of the O + Th reaction are used to study fission of fourteen nuclei 
Th, 
Pa, and 
U. Identification of fissioning nuclei and of their excitation energy is performed on an event-by-event basis, through the measurement of outgoing ejectile particle in coincidence with fission fragments. Fission fragment mass distributions are measured for each transfer channel, in selected bins of excitation energy. In particular, the mass distributions of 
Th and 
Pa are measured for the first time. Predominantly asymmetric fission is observed at low excitation energies for all studied cases, with a gradual increase of the symmetric mode towards higher excitation energy. The experimental distributions are found to be in general agreement with predictions of the fluctuation-dissipation model.

FFMD are interpreted in terms of symmetric and asymmetric modes. The current work looks at the excitation energy dependence of the FFMD of various actinide nuclei, with the aim to provide more information regarding the distribution of waste products following the transmutation of actinide waste in accelerator driven systems (ADS)The JAEA-Tokai Tandem accelerator facility was utilized for the current work, supplying an 18O beam with an energy of 162 MeV. This beam impinged on a target of Np, leading to many excited compound nuclei (CN; 
Np, 
Pu, 
Am), via MNT reactions, which then undergo fission. CN and their excitation energies were identified by detecting ejectiles with a silicon E-E telescope. Fission fragments were detected in coincidence with two multi-wire proportional counters (MWPCs), and FFs masses were determined by a kinematic consideration. Preliminary results show the transition from asymmetric fission to asymmetric fission as CN excitation energy increases. All the measured nuclei investigated in this experiment showed similar behavior as will be shown at the meeting.

This allows us to study fission in the new region of chart of nuclei. Also, the excited states in the fissioning nucleus are widely populated in the reactions, thus the excitation-energy dependence of fission can be investigated. In this invited talk, recent results on fission properties for various nuclei obtained in the reactions of O + U, Th, Cm will be presented.
