Conference ·
OSTI ID:68361
 [1]
  1. Los Alamos National Lab., NM (United States)

Calculations of the prompt fission neutron spectrum N(E) and average prompt neutron multiplicity {bar {nu}}{sub p} are presented for the spontaneous fission of {sup 236}Pu, {sup 238}Pu, {sup 240}Pu, {sup 242}Pu, and {sup 244}Pu using the Los Alamos model together with recent measurements of other fission observables for these systems.
