Dear Professor Meyer,
I would like to know if the fission of heavy elements can be considered in the r-process by NucNet.
For some case, the fission would be important.
Thank you very much.
Yes, you simply add the reaction in the appropriate format (typically as an entry in the reaction data xml). I'll blog about that in the next couple of days.

Dear Professor,
I mean that for some heavy nuclei, I may fission into two fragments. But it's not certain that which two fragments that the heavy nucleus would fission to. So maybe, a distribution of fission fragments is need. I think it's different from other types of reaction that can be added by libnucnet or create_reaction_xml.py .
Thank you very much.

Dear professor,
I still doesn't understand how to add fission to NucNet, how to include the fission fragments distribution in the reation data xml.
Thank you very much,

Sorry for the delay. I'm working on some python routines and a blog post to show how. Should come soon. Best wishes.
I've written a blog post that shows how you can include fission (including a distribution of fission fragments) into an r-process calculation.
I've also written a blog post that explores fission cycling in a little more detail.
Thank you very much, I am really appreciate it!
Let me know if you have any trouble. I'll be expanding on this in the future, but the above posts get us started.
