The recent unexpected discovery of asymmetric fission of Hg-180 following the electron-capture decay of Tl-180 has led to intense interest in experimentally mapping the fission-yield properties over more extended regions of the nuclear chart and compound-system energies. We present here a first calculation of fission-fragment yields for neutron-deficient Hg isotopes, using the recently developed Brownian Metropolis shape-motion treatment. The results for Hg-180 are in approximate agreement with the experimental data. For Hg-174 the symmetric yield increases strongly with decreasing energy, an unusual feature, which would be interesting to verify experimentally.
