Absolute fission yields in the fast neutron induced fission of 233U by track etch combined with gamma-ray spectrometry

The absolute fission yields of twenty seven fission products were determined in the fast neutron induced fission of ²³³U, employing track etch in combination with gamma-ray spectrometry. The total number of fissions was measured by registering the fission tracks on a small strip of lexan, a solid state track detector. The fission products were analysed by gamma-ray spectrometry. The measured yield values were compared to the ENDF/B-VI compilation and show a good agreement.
