We have measured the survival probability of Th-like nuclei as a function of excitation energy using the deep-inelastic reaction 400 MeV ^40Ar + ^232Th in order to search for possible effects of nuclear dissipation on the fission process. A ΔE-E silicon telescope was used to measure the charge and energy of the Ar projectile-like-fragment (PLF), and a large multi-wire gas filled proportional counter measured the time-of-flight and position of the surviving the target-like-fragment (TLF). In this manner the survival probability of the TLF could be derived as a function of total available excitation energy. Five silicon-CsI (ΔE-E) telescopes were used to measure the light-charged-particle emission in coincidence with the Ar-PLF in order to obtain experimental limits on the excitation energy division between the PLF and TLF. The data will be presented together with corresponding calculations with and without the effects of nuclear dissipation.
