Title: Mass distributions for the spontaneous fission of 253Es and the thermal-neutron-induced fission of 254Es
Abstract: Abstract The distribution of mass in the spontaneous fission of 253Es and the thermal-neutron-induced fission of 254Es have been investigated radiochemically. Both mass distributions are asymmetric with peak-to-valley ratios of 326 and 6, respectively. The average light and heavy masses ( A L , A H ) for the respective systems are 105·9, 142·4 and 110·6, 140·2. The average numbers of neutrons emitted per fission determined by subtracting A L + A H from the mass of the fissioning nucleus are respectively 4·7 and 4·2.
