Continuing fission cross section ratio studies at Lawrence Livermore Laboratory, one has measured the /sup 232/Th//sup 235/U fission cross-section ratio from 0.7 to 30 MeV. Using the threshold method, one obtained a value of 0.1081 +- 0.0022 for the average cross-section ratio in the interval from 1.75 to 4.00 MeV.
