Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/7085233· OSTI ID:7085233

Fast fission yield data are presented for /sup 239/Pu and /sup 241/Pu irradiated in EBR-II. The measurement technique was isotope dilution mass spectrometry. The neutron environment for the irradiation is defined, and chemical separation and mass spectrometric procedures are briefly described. Recommendations and suggestions for the selection of burnup monitors are given.
