FISSION CROSS SECTION OF PLUTONIUM-242

Journal Article · · Physical Review (U.S.) Superseded in part by Phys. Rev. A, Phys. Rev. B: Solid State, Phys. Rev. C, and Phys. Rev. D
The cross section for neutron-induced fission of Pu/sup 242/ was measured between 0.1 and 1.7 Mev by determinlng the ratio of the Pu/sup 242/ fission cross section to that of U/sup 235/ using a back to back gas scintillation counter. The cross section is plotted versus neutron energy. (auth)
