Present status of photofission of actinides near threshold. [Review, cross sections, threshold energy angular distribution]

Journal Article · · Nucl. Sci. Eng.; (United States)
OSTI ID:7285337
Data presently available on photofission cross sections, photoneutron cross sections, and the angular distribution of photofission fragments of actinides near threshold are reviewed. Some suggestions for additional studies are made with an aim toward a better understanding of the threshold fission phenomenon in the framework of a double-humped barrier in fission.
