Universality of shell effects in fusion-fission mass distributions

We present the results of a broad, systematic study of heavy-ion induced fission mass distributions for every even-Z compound nucleus (ZCN) from 144Gd to 212Th. We find systematic evidence of shell-driven structure in every fission mass distribution. The change in shape of the mass distributions wit...
