- Abstract
Using the recently proposed unified ternary fission model (UTFM), the tripartition of 236U<inline-graphic></inline-graphic> isotope was studied for all possible fragmentations, in which the interacting potential barrier is taken as the sum of the Coulomb and proximity potentials with fragments in collinear configuration. The highest yield is obtained for the fragmentation 48Ca+58Ti+130Sn<inline-graphic></inline-graphic> and next highest yield is found for 58Cr+46Ar+132Sn<inline-graphic></inline-graphic>, which stress the importance of doubly magic or near doubly magic nuclei in the tripartition of 236U<inline-graphic></inline-graphic> isotope. The formation of 68Ni<inline-graphic></inline-graphic> and 70Ni<inline-graphic></inline-graphic> as the edge fragments linking the doubly magic nucleus 132Sn<inline-graphic></inline-graphic> by the isotope of Si is in good agreement with experimental and theoretical studies, in the collinear cluster tripartition of 236U<inline-graphic></inline-graphic> isotope which reveals the reliability of our model (UTFM) in ternary fission.
