The data of Independent yields of secondary fission fragment pairs (emerging after prompt neutron emission from primary fragment pairs) obtained by detecting coincidences between {gamma} rays following the spontaneous fission of {sup 252}Cf have been expanded. Our approach to estimate characteristics of the primary fragments pairs (mass and excitation energy distributions) by unfolding the yields of secondary fragment pairs is discussed. Mew model parameters were introduced and results are presented here. The new results confirmed our old assumption that in case of Mo-Ba charge split the two fission modes differing with average total kinetic energy {l_angle}TKE{r_angle} on {approximately}36 MeV are realized. {copyright} {ital 1998 American Institute of Physics.}
