State dependent δ-pairing and spontaneous fission

We examine the fission barriers, mass parameters and spontaneous fission half lives of fermium isotopes within the framework of macroscopic-microscopic model with a $\delta$-pairing interaction. Four different macroscopic models are applied and studied. The results are compared to experimental data and to the corresponding monopole pairing ones. The half lives obtained in the $\delta$-pairing model are comparable with experimental data. The state-dependence of pairing has an important effect on the calculated fission half-lives.
