  ABSTRACT: Ideas, solely related on the nuclear shell model, fail to give an interpretation of the experimental central role of 54Xe in the asymmetric fission of actinides. The same is true for the β-delayed fission of 180Tl to 80Kr and 100Ru. The representation of the natural isotopes, in the Z-Neutron Excess plane, suggests the importance of the of the Neutron Excess evolution mode in the fragments of the asymmetric actinide fission and in the fragments of the β-delayed fission of 180Tl. The evolution mode of the Neutron Excess, hinged at Kr and Xe, is directed by the 50 and 82 neutron magic numbers. The present isotope representation offers a frame for the interpretation of the post fission evaporation of neutrons, higher for the AL compared to the AH fragments, a tenet in nuclear fission. Further enlightened is the functional meaning of the 50 proton magic number, marking the start of the yield rise of the AH fragments in actinide fission.
