Abstract.
The gamma-ray multiplicity and total energy emitted by the heavy nucleus
254
No have been measured at 2 di
erent beam energies. From these measurements, the
initial distributions of spin
I
and excitation energy
E
∗
of
254
No were constructed. The
distributions display a saturation in excitation energy, which allows a direct determination
of the fission barrier.
254
No is the heaviest shell-stabilized nucleus with a measured fission
barrier.
