摘      要：Fission cross-sections of ^(119)Sn and ^(209)Bi induced by negative pions of two energies 500 and 672 MeV were measured using a CR−39 nuclear track ***-detector stacks were exposed to pion beams at the Brookhaven National Laboratory(USA).Measurement results are compared with the corresponding calculations using the computer code *** between measurements and calculations is fairly good for the ^(209)Bi target nuclei whereas it is poor for 119Sn at both investigated energies of 500 and 672 *** cross−section results of^( 119)Sn and ^(209)Bi are explained using the equilibrium properties of these nuclides including nuclear electric quadrupole moments which determine the shapes of nuclei.A logarithmic dependence of fission cross−section on Z^(2)/A is observed for the above−mentioned reactions and a critical limit of Z^(2)/A is identified with the value of 30 which divides the curve ofσf versus Z2/A into two regimes,one with weak dependence and the other with strong dependence.
