Photofissility at 1 GeV for nuclei throughout the periodic table

A new approach to evaluate nuclear photofissilities at incident photon energies above the pion photoproduction threshold has been recently developed and proved to describe successfully the fissilities of natPb and 232Th target nuclei at energies ~0.2-4.0 GeV. The method is merely a simple, semiempirical description of the photofission reactions in which fissility, f, is governed by two basic quantities, namely, i) the first-chance fission probability, $\bar{f}_1$, for the average cascade residual, and ii) the slope, $\bar{s}$, of the chance-fission probability associated with the average evapo...
