Fission Probability Calculation by Solving Fokker-PIank Equation with Variation Method
- Received Date: 1992-11-30
Abstract: A variation method is developed to solve the Fokker-Planck (F-P) equation. One-dimensional fission probability is calculated and compared with other methods. The relation of the F-P equation and the Smoluchowski equation is discussed in light of this method, which paves the way to derive the multi-dimensional Smoluchowski equation with varying mass and viscosity and to solve more complicated equations.
