Abstract
We treat the isobaric distributions observed in the fission process as the result of zero-point oscillations of a time dependent harmonic oscillator in the charge equilibration mode. It is found that the experimental values of these widths can be reproduced assuming a necking time around 2 x 10 -21 s. Possible extension of the model to heavy ion reactions is discussed
