FISSION FRAGMENT ENERGY DEPOSITION EFFICIENCY FOR THIN URANIUM-CONTAINING ELEMENTS AND THE FIXATION OF NITROGEN

DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/4715047· OSTI ID:4715047
It is noted that in chemonuclear reaction systems the efficiency of conversion of nuclear to chemical energy is directly related to the fraction of the total fission fragment recoil energy liberated in the system which is directly absorbed by the chemical reactant. This fraction is termed the fission fragment energy deposition. The use of gas dosimetry for determining the deposition efficiency is described, and G value data are given for nitrogen fixation by fission fragment energy. (J.R.D.)
