The ratio of asymmetric to symmetric fission in p-wave neutron fission of U235
Journal Article
·
· Nuclear Physics
Radiochemical measurements were made of the peak-tovalley ratio of the mass-yield curve for neutron induced fission of U235 at neutron bombarding energies from 65 kev to 14 Mev, with emphasis on the region about 125 kev. In this region, where p-wave interactions predominate, the peak-to-valley ratio was found to be approx equal 45% higher than for thermal neutron fission, contrary to the trend suggested by the channel theory of fission.
