abstract = {<p style="text-align: justify;">The emission of scission neutrons from fissioning nuclei is of high practical
interest. To study this process we have used the sudden approximation and also a
more realistic approach that takes into account the scission dynamics. Numerically,
this implies the solution of the bi-dimensional Schrödinger equation, both stationary
and time-dependent. To describe axially symmetric extremely deformed nuclear
shapes, we have used the Cassini parametrization. The Hamiltonian is discretized by
using finite difference approximations of the derivatives. The main computational
challenges are the solution of algebraic eigenvalue problems and of linear systems
with large sparse matrices. We have employed appropriate procedures (Arnoldi and
bi-conjugate gradients). The numerical solutions have been used to evaluate physical
quantities, like the number of emitted neutrons per scission event, the primary fragments&#39; excitation energy and the distribution of the emission points.</p>},
