Abstract

The angular-momentum-bearing degrees of freedom involved in the fission process are identified and their influence on experimental observables is discussed. The excitation of these modes is treated in the “thermal” limit and the resulting distributions of observables are calculated. Experiments demonstrating the role of these modes are presented and discussed.
