Measurements of the integrated yield of /sup 234/U photofission are reported in the range of bremsstrahlung maximum energies E/sub max/ = 4--5.7 MeV, and also angular distributions of fragments for E/sub max/ = 5.1 and 5.6 MeV. On the basis of these data, total and partial cross sections for fission of /sup 234/U have been obtained. The qualitative differences of /sup 234/U from the heavier isotopes of uranium 236 and 238 are discussed.
