[QUOTE="drvrm, post: 5956978, member: 527528"] the excess masses of 236 U, 95 Kr and 141Ba are respectively -42.52 MeV, -58.34 MeV and -79.97 MeV ... totals to about 180 mev moreover taking the initial unit radius R0 = 1.48 fm and R1 and R2 the fragment radius at the point of contact the maximum of the curve of fragment separation is found to be at 201 MeV. so a neck formation takes place if it gets dipped by say 20 mev the threshold of fragmentation is reached.a detail analysis is presented in various textbooks or [U]in fission energy the KE of fission fragments =165 MeV + other products neutrons , beta and gamma radiations, neutrinos add to about 35 Mev [U]The Atomic Nucleus by J.
