About the inconsistency between Bohr-Wheelers transition-state method   and Kramers' escape rate in nuclear fission
  The problem of an apparent inconsistency between the fission rates derived on the basis of Bohr-Wheeler's transition-state method and Kramers' dynamical model of nuclear fission, first pointed out by Strutinsky in 1973, is revisited. The study is based on studying the features of individual trajectories on the fission path.
