Abstract
Quantum effects generate “channels” which guide a nucleus from ground state to scission. We present here the channels of258Fm and relate them to the measured kinetic energies of the fission products, to the mass asymmetry and to the relative abundance of the various fission components. The microscopic reason is discussed.
