The correlation between the sub-barrier resonant behaviour of fission crosssection of non-fissile actinides (pre-scission stage) and the visible fluctuations of their fission fragment and prompt neutron data (post-scission stage) around the incident energies of sub-barrier resonances is outlined and supported by quantitative results for two fissioning systems 234,238U(n,f). These quantitative results refer to both stages of the fission process: a) The pre-scission stage including the calculation of neutron induced cross-sections with focus on fission. Calculations are done in the frame of the refined statistical model for fission with sub-barrier effects also extended to take into account the multi-modal fission. b) The post-scission stage including the prompt neutron emission treated in the frame of the Point-by-Point model. Total quantities characterizing the fission fragments and the prompt neutrons obtained by averaging the Point-by-Point results as a function of fragment over the fission fragment distributions reveal variations around the energies of sub-barrier resonances in the fission crosssection.
