Independent isomeric yield ratios of fission products in the epi-cadmium neutron induced fission of < sup > 233 < /sup > U

Appl Radiat Isot. 2024 Mar 20;208:111304. doi: 10.1016/j.apradiso.2024.111304. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe independent isomeric yield ratios (IR) of 128,130,132Sb, 131,133Te, 132,134,136I, 135Xe and 138Cs have been measured in the epi-cadmium neutron induced fission of 233U by using an off-line gamma-ray spectrometric technique. The average neutron energy of the epi-cadmium reactor neutron spectrum is 1.9 MeV. The root mean square fragment angular momenta (JRMS) were deduced from the IR values by using spin dependent statistical model analysis. The IR and JRMS values of considered fission products in the epi-cadmium neutron induced fission of 233U were compared with the literature data in the thermal neutron induced fission of 233U to examine the influence of excitation energy on nuclear structure effect.PMID:38522264 | DOI:10.1016/j.apradiso.2024.111304
