Partial cumulativc yields and thick-target recoil properties of 14 xenon nuclides formed in the interaction of /sup 238/U with 11.5-GeV protons and ranging from /sup 122/Xe to /sup 136/Xe have been measured. Independent yields and recoil ranges were deduced with the aid of reported data. The isotopic-yield distribution consists of two peaks with a broad region of near-constant yields between them. The recoil ranges exhibit the charactcristic dropoff on the near neutron-deficient side of stability. Comparisons with other isotopic- and isobaric-yield distributions and ranges of products in the same mass region are presented. (auth)
